Photoelectrochemical water splitting and CO2 reduction provide an attractive route to produce solar fuels while reducing the level of emissions. Metal halide perovskites (MHPs) have been extensively studied for this purpose in recent years due their suitable optoelectronic properties. In review, we survey achievements field. After a brief introduction photoelectrochemical (PEC) processes, discussed properties, synthesis, application MHPs context. We also state-of-the-art findings regarding significant performance, developments addressing major challenges toxicity instability toward water. Efforts made replace toxic Pb with less materials like Sn, Ge, Sb, Bi. The stability has improved by using various methods such as compositional engineering, 2D/3D perovskite structures, surface passivation, use protective layers, encapsulation. last part, considering experience gained photovoltaic applications, provided our perspective future opportunities. place special emphasis on improvement challenge potential contribution machine learning identify most formulation desired

Abstract To further develop lead halide perovskites for their application in solar cells, understanding the material’s fundamental behavior under illumination is necessary. Investigating light-induced charge dynamics single crystals can give insight into material inherent properties. Time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (TR-PES) allows to monitor photovoltage build-up and decay between sample surface bulk over time gives information on redistribution within crystal. Additionally, this method enables us follow compositional changes degradation distinguish these from purely electronic effects. Here we investigated of two distinct perovskite crystal surfaces (CsPbBr 3 , Cs-doped FAPbI ) using TR-PES different timescales (ps μ s min). It was found that CsPbBr shows rise nanosecond microsecond time-range, which be assigned electron–hole pair separation bulk. On other hand, such electron could not resolved at fast timescales. Instead, observed dominated by much slower relaxation dark equilibrium state took around 10 min. This suggests ion migration responsible a

Halide perovskite (HP) composites with transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have attracted attention as promising photocatalysts for hydrogen production through solar-driven water splitting but their working mechanism is yet unclear. Here, we propose novel heterostructures composed of all-inorganic HP β-CsPbI3 and metallic TMD 1T-MoS2 investigate the influence interfacial vacancies on properties using first-principles calculations. Using CsPbI3(001)/MoS2(001) interface slab models a minimal lattice mismatch, calculate formation interlayer binding energies, finding that PbI2-terminated interfaces better stability stronger strength than CsI-terminated ones iodine vacancy enhances properties. Our calculations demonstrate photo-generated electrons are transferred from CsPbI3 to MoS2, inducing dipole moment at prevents recombination holes, this desirable process evolution reaction (HER) enhanced by forming an I vacancy. Through analysis electronic density states, reveal reduces band gap down-shifting its conduction minimum level shallow defect state, being favourable enhancing HER performance MoS2 surface. This work highlights way design advanced based HP/TMD solar energy.

In recent years, lead halide perovskite materials have been explored as photocatalysts for various organic transformations. However, the toxicity of "lead" has directed further research toward lead-free perovskites. Herein, two bismuth-based perovskites with chemical compositions Cs3Bi2Br9 and Cs3Bi2Br6I3 were synthesized via a modified antisolvent-assisted precipitation method, which resulted in hexagonal morphology materials. was observed to higher bandgap (Eg = 2.5 eV) than 2.0 eV).
