Abstract
Photocatalytic CO2 reduction to valuable fuels is a promising way to alleviate anthropogenic CO2 emissions and energy crises. Perovskite oxides have attracted widespread attention as photocatalysts for CO2 reduction by virtue of their high catalytic activity, compositional flexibility, bandgap adjustability, and good stability. In this review, the basic theory of photocatalysis and the mechanism of CO2 reduction over perovskite oxide are first introduced. Then, perovskite oxides' structures, properties, and preparations are presented. In detail, the research progress on perovskite oxides for photocatalytic CO2 reduction is discussed from five aspects: as a photocatalyst in its own right, metal cation doping at A and B sites of perovskite oxides, anion doping at O sites of perovskite oxides and oxygen vacancies, loading cocatalyst on perovskite oxides, and constructing heterojunction with other semiconductors. Finally, the development prospects of perovskite oxides for photocatalytic CO2 reduction are put forward. This article should serve as a useful guide for creating perovskite oxide-based photocatalysts that are more effective and reasonable.

Abstract
Perovskite structure has attracted interest for the past few years due to its prospects in photocatalysis. The exploration of efficient perovskite photocatalysts still receives much attention in the field of chemistry and materials science. Herein, KTaO3 cubes are first prepared by hydrothermal synthesis, then Au nanoparticles (NPs) are loaded on the cubes by photodeposition, and finally, CdS quantum dots (QDs) are modified on Au/KTaO3 cubes using an in situ growth method, and eventually tantalum-based photocatalysts in a ternary system are successfully prepared. The fabricated CdS/Au/KTaO3 reveals photocatalytic properties in hydrogen evolution and degradation of dyes. In particular, under the same conditions, the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution rate of the optimized 13%CdS/1.3%Au/KTaO3 (13% and 1.3% are the contents of CdS and Au in the composite photocatalyst, respectively) is 2.892 mmol g-1 h-1. Compared to those of bare KTaO3 and CdS, it is approximately 107-fold and 8.5-fold enhanced, respectively. And the sizes of CdS and Au in the photocatalyst are 4.21 and 15.07 nm. The increased photoactivity of the composite can be ascribed to the synergistic effect of several factors, such as: the Au NPs' surface plasma resonance (SPR) impact improves the production of hot electrons and the ability of KTaO3 to capture light; effective integration between CdS QDs and KTaO3 cubes forms a heterojunction and expands the absorption range of KTaO3 in the visible light spectrum, improving the utilization rate of visible light effectively. Hence, a co-modification strategy has been proposed for endowing KTaO3 perovskites with new structures and different functions, and it is expected to become a general strategy to find an illuminating strategy for achieving improvements and enhancements in the photocatalytic field.

Abstract
With the development of the global economy, large amounts of fossil fuels are being burned, causing a severe energy crisis and climate change. Photocatalytic CO2 reduction is a clean and environmentally friendly method to convert CO2 into hydrocarbon fuel, providing a feasible solution to the global energy crisis and climate problems. Photocatalytic CO2 reduction has three key steps: solar energy absorption, electron transfer, and CO2 catalytic reduction. The previous literature has obtained many significant results around the first two steps, while in the third step, there are few results due to the need to add a co-catalyst. In general, the co-catalysts have three essential roles: (1) promoting the separation of photoexcited electron–hole pairs, (2) inhibiting side reactions, and (3) improving the selectivity of target products. This paper summarizes different types of photocatalysts for photocatalytic CO2 reduction, the reaction mechanisms are illustrated, and the application prospects are prospected.

Abstract
The photocatalysis conversion of CO2 into fuels has become an encouraging method to address climate and energy issues as a long-term solution. Single material suffers poor yield due to low light energy utilization and high recombination rate of photoinduced electron-hole pairs. It is an efficient approach to construct heterojunction through two or three materials to improve the photocatalytic performance. Recently, 2D-based heterojunction is getting popular for outstanding properties, such as special light collecting structure to enhance light harvest, intimate interface to facilitate charge transfer and separation, and large specific surface area to provide abundant reactive sites. Recently, some new 2D-based heterostructures materials (both structure and composition) have been developed with excellent performance. 2D materials exert structural and functional advantages in these fine composite photocatalysts. In this review, the literatures about the photocatalytic conversion of CO2 are mainly summarized based on overall structure, interface type and material type of 2D-based heterojunction, with special attention given to the preparation, characterization, structural advantages and reaction mechanism of novel 2D-based heterojunction. This work is in hope of offering a basis for designing improved composite photocatalyst for CO2 photoreduction.

Abstract
Ever-increasing fossil-fuel combustion along with massive CO2 emissions has aroused a global energy crisis and climate change. Photocatalytic CO2 reduction represents a promising strategy for clean, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly conversion of CO2 into hydrocarbon fuels by utilizing solar energy. This strategy combines the reductive half-reaction of CO2 conversion with an oxidative half reaction, e.g., H2 O oxidation, to create a carbon-neutral cycle, presenting a viable solution to global energy and environmental problems. There are three pivotal processes in photocatalytic CO2 conversion: (i) solar-light absorption, (ii) charge separation/migration, and (iii) catalytic CO2 reduction and H2 O oxidation. While significant progress is made in optimizing the first two processes, much less research is conducted toward enhancing the efficiency of the third step, which requires the presence of cocatalysts. In general, cocatalysts play four important roles: (i) boosting charge separation/transfer, (ii) improving the activity and selectivity of CO2 reduction, (iii) enhancing the stability of photocatalysts, and (iv) suppressing side or back reactions. Herein, for the first time, all the developed CO2 -reduction cocatalysts for semiconductor-based photocatalytic CO2 conversion are summarized, and their functions and mechanisms are discussed. Finally, perspectives in this emerging area are provided.

Abstract
Doped NaTaO3 (NaTaO3 :A, where A=Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, or La) has arisen as a highly active photocatalyst for CO2 reduction to simultaneously form CO, H2 , and O2 using water as the electron donor when used with an Ag cocatalyst, under UV irradiation, and with 1 atm (0.1 MPa) of CO2 . The ratio of the number of reacted electrons/holes was almost unity, indicating that water was consumed as the electron donor. A liquid-phase reduction method for loading of the Ag cocatalyst was superior to photodeposition and impregnation methods. The Ag cocatalyst-loaded NaTaO3 :Ba was the most active photocatalyst in water with no required additives. The addition of bases, such as hydrogencarbonate, was effective to enhance the CO formation for Mg-, Ca-, Sr-, Ba-, and La-doped NaTaO3 photocatalysts with an Ag cocatalyst. Ca- and Sr-doped NaTaO3 photocatalysts showed especially high activity along with the Ba-doped photocatalyst in the aqueous NaHCO3 solution. The selectivity for the CO formation [CO/(CO+H2 )] on Ca-, Sr-, and Ba-doped NaTaO3 photocatalysts with Ag cocatalyst reached around 90 %.
