Abstract Lead-free halide double perovskites have recently attracted significant attention due to their exceptional stability and favorable band gaps, making them promising candidates for solar cell applications. However, the relationship between their structural characteristics and intrinsic band gap remains under-explored. This study presents a method to investigate the structure-band gap correlation in a typical halide double perovskite, MA$_{2}$PtI$_{6}$ (MA$^{+} =$CH$_{3}$NH$_{3}^{+}$), using high pressure techniques. The band gap of MA$_{2}$PtI$_{6}$ is effectively reduced at two different rates of 0.063 eV/GPa and 0.079 eV/GPa before and after 1.2 GPa, and progressively closes as pressure further increases. These optical changes are closely related to the pressure induced structural evolution of MA$_{2}$PtI$_{6}$. Moreover, a phase transition from trigonal ($R$-3$m$) to monoclinic ($P$2/$m$) occurs at 1.2 GPa and completes by 2.0 GPa, driven by pressure-induced distortion of the [PtI$_{6}$]$^{2-}$ octahedra, which is responsible for the variation of the band gap. These promising findings pave the way for potential applications in the structural and band gap tuning of halide double perovskites.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
