Halide Perovskite Materials for Energy Storage Applications

Abstract

Halide perovskites, traditionally a solar-cell material that exhibits superior energy conversion properties, have recently been deployed in energy storage systems such as lithium-ion batteries and photorechargeable batteries. Here, recent progress in halide perovskite-based energy storage systems is presented, focusing on halide perovskite lithium-ion batteries and halide perovskite photorechargeable batteries. Halide-perovskitebased supercapacitors and photosupercapacitors are also discussed. The photorechargeable batteries and photorechargeable supercapacitors employ solar energy to photocharge the battery; this saves energy and improves device portability. These lightweight, integrated halide perovskite-based systems, which are pertinent to electric vehicles and portable electronic devices, are reviewed in detail. Suggestions on future research into the design of halide-perovskite-based energy storage materials are also given. This review provides a foundation for the development of integrated lightweight energy conversion and storage materials.

“…Organic‐inorganic hybrid halide lead perovskites have taken tremendous strides toward the development of cheap and solution‐processable solar cells [1–3] . Despite this progress in perovskite solar cells (PSC), their durability and lead toxicity issues are major obstacles toward their commercialization [1,4] .…”

Nanoscale properties of lead halide perovskites by scanning tunneling microscopy

“…Over the last decade, lead halide perovskites have attracted a tremendous interest in the research community with the focus placed primarily on light harvesting and storage applications due to their unprecedented optical and electronic properties. [1][2][3][4][5][6] These properties are reflected by long charge carrier lifetimes and diffusion lengths, high absorption cross-sections, and low exciton binding energies; properties which can all be tuned by the elemental composition, film thickness, or varying deposition methods. [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] It was recognized early on that despite these very promising properties, lead halide perovskites suffer from performance losses which are mainly attributed to interfacial nonradiative electron-hole recombination processes at defect sites caused by interruptions in the crystal structure.…”
