As an important characteristic affecting semiconducting applications, the energy band structure is important for the development of light-emitting devices.

Based on the overview of methods for designing ferroelectrics, this Perspective systematically provides in-depth insight into the relationships between the structure–property and bandgap of HOIP ferroelectrics.
