Perovskite-based electrocatalysts are one of the most promising materials for oxygen evolution reaction (OER), but their activity and durability are still far from desirable. Herein, we demonstrate that the double perovskite LaFe Ni O (LFNO) nanorods (NRs) can be adopted as highly active and stable OER electrocatalysts. The optimized LFNO-II NRs with Ni/Fe ratio of 8:2 achieve a low overpotential of 302 mV at 10 mA cm and a small Tafel slope of 50 mV dec , outperforming those of the commercial Ir/C. The LFNO-II NRs also show high OER stability with slight current decrease after 20 h. The enhanced activity is explained by the improved surface area, tailored electronic structure as well as strong hybridization between O and Ni.

This work reports on the preparation process of a double-layer perovskite active layer. The first active layer film, CsKPEAPbIBr, was fabricated using a spin-coating method, while the second active layer, MAPbBr, was deposited using MAPbBr single crystals as the evaporation source. Additionally, doping the PEDOT: PSS hole transport layer with ETA and EDA can enhance the uniformity of the perovskite film and reduce voids, improving charge transport efficiency.

Lead-free halide double perovskites (DPs) have become a research hotspot in the field of photoelectrons due to their unique optical properties and flexible compositional tuning. However, the luminescence of DPs exhibits thermal quenching at high temperatures, which severely affects their further application. Herein, we synthesized the rare earth Dy and transition metal Mn codoped CsNaYCl rare earth DPs and characterized the optical properties using temperature-dependent photoluminescence spectra and time-resolved photoluminescence decay profiles at different temperatures.

Article Synopsis
- Researchers are exploring renewable energy sources like solar cell technology to replace fossil fuels and reduce environmental impacts, focusing on lead-free halide perovskite compounds CsXInBr (where X is Cu or Ag).
- The study found that CsAgInBr and CsCuInBr compounds exhibit desirable properties for solar applications, with calculated optical gaps and high absorption coefficients, particularly noting CsCuInBr's effectiveness in absorbing sunlight due to its high infrared absorption.
- The analysis utilized the Abinit computational package and density functional theory (DFT) to evaluate the electronic, structural, and optical characteristics of these compounds, framing potential applications in solar cells and detectors.
