There has been a huge amount of interest in perovskites recently and new structures of hybrid perovskites are frequently reported. The classification of perovskites has been unambiguous in the discussion of 3D and layered 2D perovskites due to the dimensional constraints. However, in 1D perovskites, the additional degrees of freedom have resulted in a large number of possible structural configurations. The new proposed notation aims to classify these structures based on the connectivity of the octahedra of the perovskite, which has a periodic repeating pattern. However, the notation should be restricted to simple 1D perovskites and haloplumbate structures as the notation would become too cumbersome when applied to an exotic framework which has 3D characteristics, such as perovskite polytypes.
