Perovskite materials as superior and powerful platforms for energy conversion and storage applications

• In order to meet the continuously growing demand for clean energy, a plethora of advanced materials have been exploited for energy storage applications. Among these materials, perovskites belong to a relatively new family of compounds with the structural formula of ABX3. These compounds exhibit a variety of electrical, optical, and electronic properties to adopt them for a variety of energy conversion and storage applications. The present review highlights the multifaceted nature of perovskite materials by covering a brief background, common crystallographic structures, and the importance of doping with different elements. Our discussion is extended further on the strategic energy applications of perovskites in modern devices such as fuel cells, lithium batteries, supercapacitors, LEDs, and solar cells. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd
