Halide Organic-Inorganic Perovskite (IMAGE) Georgia Institute of Technology Caption This is a depiction of an HOIP, a halide organic-inorganic perovskite. The diamond shapes are referred to as perovskite, and it's the crystal layer housing the quantum particle movement. In between is the organic layer which mainly contributes to the overall flexibility of the HOIP, a hallmark of this emerging generation of semiconductors.
