Abstract
To develop novel inorganic red pigments without harmful elements, we focused on the band structure of Ca2(Mg, Co)WO6 and attempted to narrow its bandgap by replacing the W6+ sites in the host structure of Mo6+. Ca2Mg1-xCoxW1-yMoyO6 (0.10 ≤ x ≤ 0.30; 0.45 ≤ y ≤ 0.60) samples were synthesized by a sol-gel method using citric acids, and the crystal structure, optical properties, and color of the samples were characterized. The Ca2Mg1-xCoxW1-yMoyO6 solid solution was successfully formed, which absorbed visible light at wavelengths below 600 nm. In addition, the absorption wavelength shifted to longer wavelengths with increasing Mo6+ content. This is because a new conduction band composed of a Co3d-W5d-Mo4d hybrid orbital was formed by Mo6+ doping to reduce the bandgap energy. Thus, the color of the samples gradually changed from pale orange to dark red, with a hue angle (h°) of less than 35°. Based on the above results, the optical absorption wavelength of the Ca2Mg1-xCoxW1-yMoyO6 system can be controlled to change the color by adjusting the bandgap energy.

Abstract
Although the atmospheric stability of lead-free inorganic double perovskite (DP) solar cells (PSCs) looks promising, their further development is hampered by inadequate film quality and non-radiative carrier recombination at the interfaces. Herein, the incorporation of a newly developed intriguing class of 2D material Ti3C2Tx MXene nanosheets with the photo-absorbing Cu2AgBiI6 (CABI) active layer of a fully inorganic solar cell is reported. The highly conductive Ti3C2Tx nanosheets work as a multi-functional additive by tuning the band gap, reducing the non-radiative carrier recombination, and inhibiting carrier accumulation. In addition, the presence of Ti3C2Tx MXene increases the surface free energy of the perovskite film, which elevates the energy barrier for nucleation and realizes a highly crystalline CABI perovskite film. Primarily, the MXene modification accelerates the charge extraction and transport at the interfaces of the active layer, utilizing energy level alignment with the charge transport layers. Consequently, the photo-conversion efficiency (PCE) of the device with MXene is substantially enhanced to 1.50%. Moreover, the 2D Ti3C2Tx nanosheets increased the long-term stability of the devices by retaining 70% of the initial PCE after 1680 h. With regard to relieving the severe carrier recombination at the interfaces, this work sets a new paradigm toward imminent solar energy conversion.

Abstract
The smart materials with multi-color and stimuli-responsive luminescence are very promising for next generation of optical information encryption and anti-counterfeiting, but these materials are still scarce. Herein, a multi-level information encryption strategy is developed based on the polychromatic emission of Sb-doped double perovskite powders (SDPPs). Cs2NaInCl6:Sb, Cs2KInCl6:Sb, and Cs2AgInCl6:Sb synthesized through coprecipitation methods exhibit broadband emissions with bright blue, cyan, and orange colors, respectively. The information transmitted by specific SDPP is encrypted when different SDPPs are mixed. The confidential information can be decrypted by selecting the corresponding narrowband filter. Then, an encrypted quick response (QR) code with improved security is demonstrated based on this multi-channel selection strategy. Moreover, the three types of SDPPs exhibit three different water-triggered luminescence switching behaviors. The confidential information represented by Cs2NaInCl6:Sb can be erased/recovered through a simple water spray/drying. Whereas, the information collected from the green channel is permanently erased by moisture, which fundamentally avoids information leakage. Therefore, different encryption schemes can be designed to meet a variety of encryption requirements. The multicolor and stimuli-responsive luminescence greatly enrich the flexibility of optical information encryption, which leaps the level of security and confidentiality.

Abstract
The predominant method for pest control has been the use of pesticides, which have been shown to have detrimental effects on soil, freshwater, and crop quality. Therefore, the development of novel and sustainable crop protection strategies has become increasingly imperative. In this study, a novel orange-red emitting Ba2SrWO6: Sm3+ phosphor was synthesized using the high-temperature solid-state reaction. Under ultraviolet excitation, the phosphors showed obvious emission peaks at 575, 614, and 662 nm. The Ba2SrWO6: Sm3+ was used to fabricate a fluorescence film with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), and attracted twice as many insects as the blank control group under 365 nm ultraviolet light. This material holds great potential as a fluorescent agent for insect trapping in the pest control fields of tea, cotton, eggplant, rice, potato, grape, and other agricultural industries. Our findings provide an eco-friendly approach to pest management for the increment of food production.

Abstract
The low-toxic and environmentally friendly 2D lead-free perovskite has made significant progress in the exploration of "green" X-ray detectors. However, the gap in detection performance between them and their lead-based analogues remains a matter of concern that cannot be ignored. To reduce this gap, shortening the interlayer spacing to accelerate the migration and collection of X-ray carriers is a promising strategy. Herein, a Dion-Jacobson (DJ) lead-free double perovskite (4-AP)2 AgBiBr8 (1, 4-AP = 4-amidinopyridine) with an ultra-narrow interlayer spacing of 3.0 Å, is constructed by utilizing π-conjugated aromatic spacers. Strikingly, the subsequent enhanced carrier transport and increased crystal density lead to X-ray detectors based on bulk single crystals of 1 with a high sensitivity of 1117.3 µC Gy-1 cm-2 , superior to the vast majority of similar double perovskites. In particular, the tight connection of the inorganic layers by the divalent cations enhances structural rigidity and stability, further endowing 1 detector with ultralow dark current drift (3.06 × 10-8 nA cm-1 s-1 V-1 , 80 V), excellent multiple cycles switching X-ray irradiation stability, as well as long-term environmental stability (maintains over 94% photoresponse after 90 days). This work brings lead-free double perovskites one step closer to realizing efficient practical green applications.

Abstract
Recently, the lead-free double perovskite Cs2AgBiBr6has been considered as a promising candidate for next-generation nonvolatile memory and artificial synapse devices due to its high stability and low toxicity compared to its lead-based counterparts. In this work, we developed a simple and effective method to produce high-quality lead-free double perovskite Cs2AgBiBr6thin films without pinholes and particles by applying a low-pressure assisted method under ambient condition with a relative humidity (RH) of about 45%. The formation of pinholes and Ag precipitation in the perovskite Cs2AgBiBr6 films is effectively suppressed by the proper ratio of N,N-dimenthylformamide (DMF) mixed in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solvents. Furthermore, the grain size of the Cs2AgBiBr6films can be significantly increased by increasing the post-annealing temperature. Finally, a sandwiched structure memristor with an ITO/Cs2AgBiBr6/Ta configuration was successfully demonstrated, featuring ultralow operation voltage (VSet∼ 57 ± 23 mV,VReset∼ -692 ± 68 mV) and satisfactory memory window (the ratio ofRHRS/RLRS∼ 10 times), which makes it suitable for low-power consumption information storage devices.

Abstract
A Lanthanum ion (La3+ ) incorporation strategy is implemented to modify Ba2 Bi2 O6 -based double perovskite photoelectrodes. X-ray diffraction (XRD) characterization shows that highly crystalline Ba2 La0.4 Bi1.6 O6 double perovskites with the space group I2/m are successfully prepared. UV-vis absorption spectra and the Tauc-plot reveal an optical band gap Eg ≈1.57 ± 0.01 eV. A thickness dependence of the photoelectrodes photoelectrochemical (PEC) performance shows that the submicron (≈1 µm) 4-times spin-coated thin film photoelectrode displays strong p-type conductivity, which delivers an encouraging photocurrent density of 0.88 mA cm-2 at 0.25 VRHE under AM 1.5G illumination. 10-times coated and 20-times coated medium thick (125.8-197 µm) photoelectrodes that exhibit moderate p-type conductivity, show further enhanced photocurrent densities of 1.5 mA cm-2 at 0 VRHE . In contrast, charge recombination centers existing in a standard thick pellet (≈500 µm) Ba2 La0.4 Bi1.6 O6 photoelectrode can quench photo-generated charge carriers and greatly undermine PEC activities. The approach to doping at the Bi(III) sites contrasts with earlier efforts that focus on doping at the Bi(V) sites and thus paves the way for further tailoring a family of novel promising photocathode materials for efficient solar-water conversion devices.

Abstract
A series of tungstate double perovskite Ca3 WO6 doped with Tb3+ was prepared by a combustion process using urea as a flux. The crystal structure identification of Ca3 WO6 :Tb3+ phosphors was done using X-ray diffraction patterns, and a monoclinic structure was discovered. The Fourier transform infrared spectrum of Ca3 WO6 :Tb3+ displayed characteristic vibrations of tungstate bonds. Under 278 nm excitation, Ca3 WO6 :Tb3+ exhibited intense downconversion green emission, which corresponded to the 5 D4 -7 FJ (J = 4,5) transitions of Tb3+ . The phosphor exhibited the highest photoluminescence (PL) intensity when it was doped with 1 mol% of Tb3+ ; later intensity quenching appeared to be due to the multipolar interaction at higher dopant concentrations. Moreover, high-quality thermoluminescence (TL) was detected when phosphors were irradiated using beta rays. The effects of Tb3+ concentration and beta dose on TL intensity were the two major aspects studied in detail. The TL intensity demonstrated excellent linear response to the applied range of beta dose. The trap parameters of the studied phosphors were computed by the peak shape approach and glow curve deconvolution. The fading effect on TL intensity was studied by recording the TL glow curves after 1 month of beta irradiation. Obtained results from the PL and TL characterizations showed that the phosphors under study have the potential to be used in lighting displays and in thermoluminescence dosimetry.

Abstract
In this investigation, we employ a numerical simulation approach to model a hydrogenated lead-free Cs2AgBiBr6 double perovskite solar cell with a p-i-n inverted structure, utilizing SCAPS-1D. Contrary to traditional lead-based perovskite solar cells, the Cs2AgBiBr6 double perovskite exhibits reduced toxicity and enhanced stability, boasting a maximum power conversion efficiency of 6.37%. Given its potential for improved environmental compatibility, achieving higher efficiency is imperative for its practical implementation in solar cells. This paper offers a comprehensive quantitative analysis of the hydrogenated lead-free Cs2AgBiBr6 double perovskite solar cell, aiming to optimize its structural parameters. Our exploration involves an in-depth investigation of various electron transport layer materials to augment efficiency. Variables that affect the photovoltaic efficiency of the perovskite solar cell are closely examined, including the absorber layer's thickness and doping concentration, the hole transport layer, and the absorber defect density. We also investigate the impact of the doping concentration of the electron transport layer and the energy level alignment between the absorber and the interface on the photovoltaic output of the cell. After careful consideration, zinc oxide is chosen to serve as the electron transport layer. This optimized configuration surpasses the original structure by over four times, resulting in an impressive power conversion efficiency of 26.3%, an open-circuit voltage of 1.278 V, a fill factor of 88.21%, and a short-circuit current density of 23.30 mA.cm-2. This study highlights the critical role that numerical simulations play in improving the chances of commercializing Cs2AgBiBr6 double perovskite solar cells through increased structural optimization and efficiency.

Abstract
The all-inorganic double perovskite Cs2AgInCl6with three dimensional structure has attracted much attention due to its direct bandgap property and particular luminescence mechanism, which is self-trapped exciton emission. However, it is a pity that Cs2AgInCl6exhibits low photoluminescence quantum yield, which affects its application for light-emitting devices. In this paper, the band structure and transition dipole moment of Cs2AgIn(1-x)SbxCl6(x= 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75) are calculated using first principle calculation. The calculated results shows that the pure material Cs2AgInCl6not only has a large band gap but also has the dipole forbidden transition, which means that the electrons cannot be excited from the valence band maximum to the conduction band minimum. However, the substituted Cs2AgIn0.75Sb0.25Cl6have a good property for the band gap about 3.066 eV and break forbidden transition at point X. The reason for its change is due to the overlap of electron and hole for charge density. Our work provides theoretical guidance for the design of more efficient light-emitting devices.

Abstract
Double perovskite crystals are promising alternatives for lead-based perovskites that has potential to address toxicity and instability issues. In this study, Cs2AgBiCl6nanocrystals (NCs) with high absorption coefficients were synthesized by hot-injection method. The bandgap engineering was realized by tuning the halide composition in Cs2AgBiCl6to Cs2AgBiBr6. Both NCs were used as light-absorbing layers in lead-free perovskite photodiodes that exhibit wavelength-selectivity for UV-visible light operatable even at a bias voltage of 0 V. Cs2AgBiBr6-based photodiode exhibits a characteristic detection peak at 340 nm with a responsivity of 3.21 mA W-1, a specific detectivity up to 8.91 × 1010Jones and a fast response speed with a rise/fall time of 30/35 ms. The excellent performance of self-driven photodiodes lights up the prospect of lead-free perovskite NCs in highly efficient optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
We report the colloidal synthesis of Bi-doped Cs2AgxNa1-xInCl6 double perovskite nanoplatelets (NPLs) exhibiting a near-unity photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY), a record emission efficiency for nanoscale lead-free metal halides. A combination of optical spectroscopies revealed that nonradiative decay processes in the NPL were suppressed, indicating a well-passivated surface. By comparison, nanocubes with the same composition and surface ligands as the NPLs had a PLQY of only 40%. According to our calculations, the type of trap states arising from the presence of surface defects depends on their specific location: defects located on the facets of nanocubes generate only shallow traps, while those at the edges result in deep traps. In NPLs, due to their extended basal facets, most of the surface defects are facet defects. This so-called facet-defect tolerant behavior of double perovskites explains the more efficient optical emission of NPLs compared to that of nanocubes.

Abstract
In the present study, the structural, mechanical, electronic and optical properties of all-inorganic vacancy-ordered double perovskites A2Sn1-xTixY6 (A = K, Rb, Cs; Y = Cl, Br, I) are explored by density functional theory. The structural and thermodynamic stabilities are confirmed by the tolerance factor and negative formation energy. Moreover, by doping Ti ions into vacancy-ordered double perovskite A2SnY6, the effect of Ti doping on the electronic and optical properties was investigated in detail. Then, according to the requirement of practical applications in photovoltaics, the optimal concentration of Ti ions and the most suitable halide element are determined to screen the right compositions. In addition, the mechanical, electronic and optical properties of the selected compositions are discussed, exhibiting the maximum optical absorption both in the visible and ultraviolet energy ranges; thus, the selected compositions can be considered as promising materials for application in solar photovoltaics. The results suggest a great potential of A2Sn1-xTixY6 (A = K, Rb, Cs; Y = Cl, Br, I) for further theoretical research as well as experimental research on the photovoltaic performance of stable and toxic-free perovskite solar cells.

Abstract
Silicate perovskite, with the mineral name bridgmanite, is the most abundant mineral in the Earth's lower mantle. We investigated crystal structures and equations of state of two perovskite-type Fe3+-rich phases, FeMg0.5Si0.5O3 and Fe0.5Mg0.5Al0.5Si0.5O3, at high pressures, employing single-crystal X-ray diffraction and synchrotron Mössbauer spectroscopy. We solved their crystal structures at high pressures and found that the FeMg0.5Si0.5O3 phase adopts a novel monoclinic double-perovskite structure with the space group of P21/n at pressures above 12 GPa, whereas the Fe0.5Mg0.5Al0.5Si0.5O3 phase adopts an orthorhombic perovskite structure with the space group of Pnma at pressures above 8 GPa. The pressure induces an iron spin transition for Fe3+ in a (Fe0.7,Mg0.3)O6 octahedral site of the FeMg0.5Si0.5O3 phase at pressures higher than 40 GPa. No iron spin transition was observed for the Fe0.5Mg0.5Al0.5Si0.5O3 phase as all Fe3+ ions are located in bicapped prism sites, which have larger volumes than an octahedral site of (Al0.5,Si0.5)O6.

Abstract
The critical behavior at the ferromagnetic to paramagnetic phase transition of a Griffiths ferromagnet, Ho2NiMnO6, is studied using modified Arrott plot, Kouvel-Fisher, and critical isotherm analysis. Here, we report a second-order phase transition and conclude from the estimated critical exponents that it is unusual and do not belong to conventional universality classes. However, they obey scaling relationships, which indicates the renormalization of interactions around the phase transition temperature. The presence of Griffiths phase in the system accounts for the unusual critical exponents observed.

Abstract
2D Dion-Jacobson (DJ) phase hybrid perovskites have shown great promise in the photoelectronic field owing to their outstanding optoelectronic performance and superior structural rigidity. However, DJ phase lead-free double perovskites are still a virgin land with direct X-ray detection. Herein, we have designed and synthesized a new DJ phase lead-free layered double perovskite of (HIS)2 AgSbBr8 (1, HIS2+ = histammonium). Centimeter-sized (18 × 10 × 5 mm3 ) single crystals of 1 are successfully grown via the temperature cooling technique, exhibiting remarkable semiconductive characteristics such as a high resistivity (2.2 × 1011 Ω cm), a low trap state density (3.56 × 1010 cm-3 ), and a large mobility-lifetime product (1.72 × 10-3 cm2 V-1 ). Strikingly, its single-crystal-based X-ray detector shows a high sensitivity of 223 µC Gy-1 air cm-2 under 33.3 V mm-1 , a low detection limit (84.2 nGyair s-1 ) and superior anti-fatigue. As far as we know, we firstly demonstrates the potential of 2D DJ phase lead-free hybrid double perovskite in X-ray detection, showing excellent photoelectric response and operational stability. This work will pave a promising pathway to the innovative application of hybrid perovskites for eco-friendly and efficient X-ray detection.

Abstract
Light olefins (LOs) such as ethylene and propylene are critical feedstocks for many vital chemicals that support our economy and daily life. LOs are currently mass produced via steam cracking of hydrocarbons, which is highly energy intensive and carbon polluting. Efficient, low-emission, and LO-selective conversion technologies are highly desirable. Electrochemical oxidative dehydrogenation of alkanes in oxide-ion-conducting solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) reactors has been reported in recent years as a promising approach to produce LOs with high efficiency and yield while generating electricity. We report here an electrocatalyst that excels in the co-production. The efficient catalyst is NiFe alloy nanoparticles (NPs) exsolved from a Pr- and Ni-doped double perovskite Sr2Fe1.5Mo0.5O6 (Pr0.8Sr1.2Ni0.2Fe1.3Mo0.5O6-δ, PSNFM) matrix during SOFC operation. We show evidence that Ni is first exsolved, which triggers the following Fe-exsolution, forming the NiFe NP alloy. At the same time as the NiFe exsolution, abundant oxygen vacancies are created at the NiFe/PSNFM interface, which promotes the oxygen mobility for oxidative dehydrogenation of propane (ODHP), coking resistance, and power generation. At 750 °C, the SOFC reactor with the PSNFM catalyst reaches a propane conversion of 71.40% and LO yield of 70.91% under a current density of 0.3 A cm-2 without coking. This level of performance is unmatchable by the current thermal catalytic reactors, demonstrating the great potential of electrochemical reactors for direct hydrocarbon conversion into value-added products.

Abstract
The stability and toxicity problems have haunted the development and applications of metal halide perovskite materials, for which the lead-free inorganic double perovskite Cs2AgBiBr6 has emerged as a promising substitute in recent years. However, poor film quality has severely limited its photovoltaic performance that could have been induced by some key factors such as high annealing temperature. Herein, we present a facile strategy to fabricate high-quality pinhole-free Cs2AgBiBr6 films with large grain sizes by introducing carbohydrazide (CBH) into the precursor. Detailed characterizations have shown that the carbonyl group (C═O) in CBH plays the critical role in coordinating with Ag+ and Bi3+ cations during the film formation process. As another consequence, the as-fabricated devices have exhibited significantly higher reproducibility for fabrication. By optimizing the amount of CBH, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) relatively increased 37 to 1.57%, which remained 95.0% in an ambient environment for a 1000-h test. Hopefully, this work could facilitate the current technologies in the exploration of high-performance lead-free perovskites such as Cs2AgBiBr6 and better understanding of the mechanism in the additive engineering as well.

Abstract
X-ray detection has widespread applications in medical diagnosis, non-destructive industrial radiography and safety inspection, and especially, medical diagnosis realized by medical X-ray detectors is presenting an increasing demand. Perovskite materials are excellent candidates for high-energy radiation detection based on their promising material properties such as excellent carrier transport capability and high effective atomic number. In this review paper, we introduce X-ray detectors using all kinds of halide perovskite materials along with various crystal structures and discuss their device performance in detail. Single-crystal perovskite was first fabricated as an active material for X-ray detectors, having excellent performance under X-ray illumination due to its superior photoelectric properties of X-ray attenuation with μm thickness. The X-ray detector based on inorganic perovskite shows good environmental stability and high X-ray sensitivity. Owing to anisotropic carrier transport capability, two-dimensional layered perovskites with a preferred orientation parallel to the substrate can effectively suppress the dark current of the device despite poor light response to X-rays, resulting in lower sensitivity for the device. Double perovskite applied for X-ray detectors shows better attenuation of X-rays due to the introduction of high-atomic-numbered elements. Additionally, its stable crystal structure can effectively lower the dark current of X-ray detectors. Environmentally friendly lead-free perovskite exhibits potential application in X-ray detectors by virtue of its high attenuation of X-rays. In the last section, we specifically introduce the up-scaling process technology for fabricating large-area and thick perovskite films for X-ray detectors, which is critical for the commercialization and mass production of perovskite-based X-ray detectors.

Abstract
Lead halide perovskite has become a promising candidate for high-performance photodetectors (PDs) due to its attractive optical and electrical properties, such as high optical absorption coefficient, high carrier mobility, and long carrier diffusion length. However, the presence of highly toxic lead in these devices has limited their practical applications and even hindered their progress toward commercialization. Therefore, the scientific community has been committed to searching for low-toxic and stable perovskite-type alternative materials. Lead-free double perovskite, which is still in the preliminary stage of exploration, has achieved inspiring results in recent years. In this review, we mainly focus on two types of lead-free double perovskite based on different Pb substitution strategies, including A2M(I)M(III)X6 and A2M(IV)X6. We review the research progress and prospects of lead-free double perovskite photodetectors in the past three years. More importantly, from the perspective of optimizing the inherent defects in materials and improving device performance, we propose some feasible pathways and make an encouraging perspective for the future development of lead-free double perovskite photodetectors.

Abstract
Lead-free halide double perovskite, as one of the promising candidates for lead halide perovskite materials, shows great potential in light-emitting diodes (LEDs), benefiting from its environmental friendliness and high chemical stability. However, the poor regulation of the emission spectra severely limits its application range. Herein, various lanthanide ions were successfully doped in Cs2NaScCl6 double perovskite single crystals (DPSCs) to yield effective and stable emissions spanning from visible to near-infrared (NIR) regions. Notably, efficient energy transfer from the host to the dopants enables tunable emissions with good chromaticity, which is rarely reported in the field of lead-free double perovskite. Moreover, density functional theory calculations reveal that the high local electron density around the [LnCl6]3- octahedron in DPSCs plays a key role in the improvement of photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs). The optimal PLQYs are up to 84%, which increases around 3 times over that of the undoped sample. Finally, multicolor and NIR LEDs based on Ln3+-doped Cs2NaScCl6 DPSCs were fabricated and had different application functions. Specifically, the single-composite white LED shows adjustable coordinates and correlated color temperatures, while the NIR LED shows good night vision imaging. This work provides new inspiration for the application of efficient multifunctional LEDs based on lead-free double perovskite materials.

Abstract
Traditional lithium-ion batteries cannot meet the ever-increasing energy demands due to the unsatisfied graphite anode with sluggish electrochemical kinetics. Recently, the perovskite material family as anode attracts growing attention due to their advantages on specific capacity, rate capability, lifetime, and safety. Herein, a double perovskite La2 MnNiO6 synthesized by solid-state reaction method as a high-performance anode material for LIBs is reported. La2 MnNiO6 with an average operating potential of <0.8 V versus Li+ /Li exhibits a good rate capability. Besides, the Li|La2 MnNiO6 cells perform long cycle life without decay after 1000 cycles at 1C and a high cycling retention of 93% is observed after 3000 cycles at 6C. It reveals that this material maintains stable perovskite structure with cycling. Theoretical calculations further demonstrate the high electronic conductivity, low diffusion energy barrier, and structural stability of the lithiated La2 MnNiO6 . This study highlights the double perovskite type material as a promising anode for next-generation batteries.

Abstract
The bulk anomalous photovoltaic (BAPV) effect of acentric materials refers to a distinct concept from traditional semiconductor-based devices, of which the above-bandgap photovoltage hints at a promise for solar-energy conversion. However, it is still a challenge to exploit new BAPV-active systems due to the lacking of knowledge on the structural origin of this concept. BAPV effects in single crystals of a 2D lead-free double perovskite, (BBA)2 CsAgBiBr7 (1, BBA = 4-bromobenzylammonium), tailored by mixing aromatic and alkali cations in the confined architecture to form electric polarization are acquired here. Strikingly, BAPV effects manifested by above-bandgap photovoltage (VOC ) show unique attributes of directional anisotropy and positive dependence on electrode spacing. The driving source stems from orientations of the polar aromatic spacer and Cs+ ion drift, being different from the known built-in asymmetry photovoltaic heterojunctions. As the first demonstration of the BAPV effect in the double perovskites, the results will enrich the family of environmentally green BAPV-active candidates and further facilitate their new optoelectronic application.

Abstract
Exchange bias (EB) is highly desirable for widespread technologies. Generally, conventional exchange-bias heterojunctions require excessively large cooling fields for sufficient bias fields, which are generated by pinned spins at the interface of ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic layers. It is crucial for applicability to obtain considerable exchange-bias fields with minimum cooling fields. Here, an exchange-bias-like effect is reported in a double perovskite, Y2 NiIrO6 , which shows long-range ferrimagnetic ordering below 192 K. It displays a giant bias-like field of 1.1 T with a cooling field of only 15 Oe at 5 K. This robust phenomenon appears below 170 K. This fascinating bias-like effect is the secondary effect of the vertical shifts of the magnetic loops, which is attributed to the pinned magnetic domains due to the combination of strong spin-orbit coupling on Ir, and antiferromagnetically coupled Ni- and Ir-sublattices. The pinned moments in Y2 NiIrO6 are present throughout the full volume, not just at the interface as in conventional bilayer systems.

Abstract
Lead-free perovskites have attracted increasing attention because they can address the toxicity and instability problems inherent to lead-halide perovskites. Furthermore, the nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of lead-free perovskites are rarely explored. Herein, we report significant NLO responses and defect-dependent NLO behavior of Cs2AgBiBr6. Specifically, a thin film of pristine Cs2AgBiBr6 exhibits strong reverse saturable absorption (RSA), while a film of Cs2AgBiBr6 with defects (denoted as Cs2AgBiBr6(D)) shows saturable absorption (SA). The nonlinear absorption coefficients are ca. 4.0 × 104 cm GW-1 (515 nm laser excitation) and 2.6 × 104 cm GW-1 (800 nm laser excitation) for Cs2AgBiBr6 and -2.0 × 104 cm GW-1 (515 nm laser excitation) and -7.1 × 103 cm GW-1 (800 nm laser excitation) for Cs2AgBiBr6(D). The optical limiting threshold of Cs2AgBiBr6 is 8.1 × 10-4 J cm-2 (515 nm laser excitation). The samples show excellent long-term performance stability in air. The RSA of pristine Cs2AgBiBr6 correlates with excited-state absorption (515 nm laser excitation) and excited-state absorption following two-photon absorption (800 nm laser excitation), while the defects in Cs2AgBiBr6(D) strengthen the ground-state depletion and Pauli blocking, resulting in SA.

Abstract
Nanofibers have great promise as a highly active air electrode for reversible solid oxide cells (ReSOCs); however, one thorny issue is how to adhesively stick nanofibers to electrolyte with no damage to the original morphology. Herein, PrBa0.8Ca0.2Co2O5+δ (PBCC) nanofibers are applied as an air electrode by a facile direct assembly approach that leads to the retention of most of the unique microstructure of nanofibers, and firm adhesion of the nanofiber electrode onto the electrolyte is achieved by applying electrochemical polarization. A single cell with the PBCC nanofiber air electrode exhibits excellent maximum power density (1.97 W cm-2), electrolysis performance (1.3 A cm-2 at 1.3 V), and operating stability at 750 °C for 200 h. These findings provide a facile means for the utilization of nanofiber electrodes for high-performance and durable ReSOCs.

Abstract
We report rich magnetic behavior for Co-Ir based double perovskites consisting of different rare earth cations Pr and Nd: Pr2CoIrO6(PCIO) and Nd2CoIrO6(NCIO). Both oxides show an antisite disorder of 10% and a ferrimagnetic transition,TFiMaround 96 K and 98 K respectively. The long range magnetic ordering is arising from the canted antiferromagnetic ordering between the Co2+and Ir4+ions. A prominent peak around 27 K in magnetization data of NCIO indicates that the total moment of Nd ion is antiferromagnetically coupled to the Co-Ir sublattice. The long range order of the Nd sublattice is corroborated by the evidence of an anomaly in specific heat at very low temperature. The compounds exhibit a maximum change of magnetic entropy of 0.57 (0.48) J kg.K-1atTFiMin a magnetic field of 5 T. The strong spin-orbit coupling in 5dstates of Ir and cation disorder lead to the Mott insulating phase as found from the analysis of temperature dependent resistivity. These unique behaviors suggest an interesting interplay between localized Pr/Nd-4f, itinerant Co-3dand Ir-5delectrons.

Abstract
A luminescent double perovskite phosphor Sr2 YNbO6 doped with Eu3+ crystallized to the monoclinic phase and was synthesized successfully via a conventional high-temperature combustion method. The formation of the crystal structure, phase purity, and surface morphology were studied using X-ray diffraction patterns and scanning electron microscopy. The characteristic vibrations between the atoms of the functional groups present in phosphor were studied using Fourier transform infrared spectra analysis. The luminescence properties of the prepared phosphors were investigated in terms of photoluminescence (PL) and thermoluminescence (TL). PL excitation spectra exhibited charge transfer bands and the characteristic 4f6 transitions of Eu3+ . A prominent PL emission was obtained for the phosphor doped with 4 mol% Eu3+ under the 396 nm excitation wavelength. PL emission quenching was observed for the higher doping concentrations due to a multipole-multipole interaction. A highly intense PL emission arose due to the hypersensitive 5 D0 -7 F2 electric dipole transition of Eu3+ that dominated the emission spectra. The thermal stability of the phosphor was examined through temperature-dependent PL. The TL properties of the Sr2 YNbO6 double perovskites irradiated with a 90 Sr beta source at different doses were measured. The double perovskite phosphors under study showed a linear dose-response with increasing beta dose, ranging from 1 Gy to 10 Gy. Trapping parameters of the TL glow curves were determined using Chen's peak shape method and computerized glow curve deconvolution (CGCD). CGCD fitting of the TL glow curves revealed that it was consisted of three major peaks and followed second-order kinetics. The estimated activation energies were determined using different methods and were comparable and significant.

Abstract
The double perovskite halides A2BIBIIIX6 provide flexibility for various formulation adjustments and are of less toxicity in comparison with well-discussed complex lead halide derivatives. Such type of structure can be formed by replacing two Pb2+ ions in the cubic lattice with a pair of non-toxic heterovalent (monovalent and trivalent) metal cations, such as silver and indium. The aim of this work is to briefly characterize the phase equilibria in the ternary system CsBr-AgBr-InBr3 and investigate the thermodynamic availability of synthesis of Cs2AgInBr6 double perovskite phase by solid-state sintering or melt crystallization. The results demonstrate the unfeasibility of the Cs2AgInBr6 phase but high stability of the corresponding binary bromides perspective for optoelectronics.

Abstract
In this work, Ba2MgWO6: Eu3+ (BMW: Eu3+) ceramic materials with a double perovskite structure were sintered using the High-Pressure Low-Temperature sintering (HPLT) technique. As part of the research, the influence of pressure (CP), sintering temperature (CT), and sintering time (CTS) on the structure and luminescence of the doped BMW were determined. Structural analysis via XRD and SEM + EDS and spectroscopic analysis via emission and excitation spectra, decay time, and absorption spectra of the obtained ceramics were performed. Dense double perovskite ceramics were obtained with a cubic structure with optimal sintering parameters: T = 500 °C, p = 8 GPa, and t = 1 min. The increase in temperature caused an increased extinction of the luminescence due to the diffusion of carbon into the ceramics. The increase in pressure led to the formation of the amorphous phase, which increased the speed of non-radiative transitions and also led to the extinction of the luminescence. The increase in sintering time from 1 to 3 min enhanced the luminescence output, but when the ceramic was sintered for 5 min, the luminescence was quenched, most likely by increasing the rate of the non-radiative process, as evidenced by reduced decay time.

Abstract
The influence of epitaxial strain on the electronic, magnetic, and optical properties of the distorted double perovskite Ca2 FeOsO6 is studied. These calculations show that the compound realizes a monoclinic structure with P21 /n space group from -6% to +6% strain. While it retains ferrimagnetic ordering with a net magnetic moment of 2 μB per formula unit at low strain, it undergoes transitions into E-antiferromagnetic and C-antiferromagnetic phases at -5% and +5% strain, respectively. It is shown that spin frustration reduces the critical temperature of the ferrimagnetic ordering from the mean field value of 600-350 K, in excellent agreement with the experimental value of 320 K. It is also shown that the critical temperature can be tuned efficiently through strain and that the spin coherence length surpasses that of Sr2 FeMoO6 under tensile strain. An indirect-to-direct bandgap transition is observed at +5% strain. Localization of the valence and conduction states on different transition metal sublattices enables efficient electron-hole separation upon photoexcitation. The calculated spectroscopic limited maximum efficiency of up to 33% points to excellent potential of Ca2 FeOsO6 in solar cell applications.

Abstract
Highly transparent thin films with the chemical formula BaSrMgWO6 were deposited by spin coating using a solution of nitrates of Ba, Sr, and Mg and ammonium paratungstate in dimethylformamide with a Ba:Sr:Mg:W ratio = 1:1:1:1. XRD, SEM, EDX, and XPS investigations evidenced that annealing at 800 °C for 1 h results in an amorphous structure having a precipitate on its surface, and that supplementary annealing at 850 °C for 45 min forms a nanocrystalline structure and dissolves a portion of the precipitates. A textured double perovskite cubic structure (61.9%) was found, decorated with tetragonal and cubic impurity phases (12.7%), such as BaO2, SrO2, and MgO, and an under-stoichiometric phase (24.4%) with the chemical formula Ba2-(x+y) SrxMgyWO5. From transmittance measurements, the values of the optical band gap were estimated for the amorphous (Egdir = 5.21 eV, Egind = 3.85 eV) and nanocrystalline (Egdir = 4.69 eV, Egind = 3.77 eV) phases. The presence of a lattice disorder was indicated by the high Urbach energy values and weak absorption tail energies. A decrease in their values was observed and attributed to the crystallization process, lattice strain diminution, and cation redistribution.

Abstract
Due to the advantages of good physicochemical properties, thermal stability, and optical properties, double perovskite compounds have received extensive attention. On this basis, a new type of red phosphor, Ca2 YNbO6 :xEu3+ , was synthesized using a high-temperature solid-phase method. Its phase purity, morphology, elemental composition, absorption spectrum, photoluminescence, thermal stability, and Commission Internationale de l'éclairage (CIE) chromaticity coordinates were thoroughly investigated. The results display that there is no impurity phase in the samples and the convergence factor Rwp = 14.2%; the microscopic particles are uniform and full, and the distribution of each element is uniform. The energy band gap ΔE is between 3.71 eV and 3.65 eV. The luminescence intensity is the best when the doped Eu3+ concentration x reaches 0.4, and emits 612 nm red light (5 D0 →7 F2 ) under 465 nm excitation, and the concentration quenching is attributed to a d-d interaction. The luminescence intensity at 425 K was still 75% of the room temperature luminescence intensity, which indicates that the thermal stability is extremely superior. The CIE chromaticity coordinates (0.6534, 0.3455) of the Ca2YNbO6:0.4Eu3+ phosphors are very close to National Television Standards Committee (0.670, 0.330), and the samples have low correlated colour temperature (2656 K) and high colour purity (99.90%). All findings suggest that Ca2 YNbO6 :Eu3+ can serve as a substitute for red phosphor in WLEDs.

Abstract
Low-temperature synthesis of high-quality, high-stability, wide-bandgap perovskite films by solution methods is still challenging. Herein, large-scale wide-bandgap Cs2AgBiCl6 (CABC) double perovskite films are synthesized by a vapor-phase anion-exchange strategy. By dedicatedly designing an ultrathin TiO2 modification layer between the substrate and double perovskites, high-quality heterojunctions with matched energy band alignment are formed, contributing to a remarkably enhanced ON/OFF ratio of 2.4 × 104 (86 times) and a responsivity of 16 mA W-1 (12 times). Additionally, the ultraviolet photodetectors (UV PDs) exhibit an excellent UV detection limit of 1.18 μW cm-2 (20 nW), a broad linear dynamic range of 146 dB, and a high specific detectivity of 2.06 × 1011 Jones, as well as long-term stability. Finally, we further demonstrate a weak UV imaging system using CABC UV PDs as imaging sensors. The system is capable of imaging weak UV signals as low as 2.94 μW cm-2 (50 nW). Our results provide a feasible approach for low-temperature fabrication of wide-bandgap perovskite UV PDs and explore the promising application for weak UV detection and imaging.

Abstract
Over the last decade, lead halide perovskites have attracted significant research attention in the field of photovoltaics, light-emitting devices, photodetection, ionizing radiation detection, etc, owing to their outstanding optoelectrical properties. However, the commercial applications of lead-based perovskite devices are restricted due to the poor ambient stability and toxicity of lead. The encapsulation of lead-based devices can reduce the possible leakage of lead. However, it is hard to ensure safety during large-scale production and long-term storage. Recently, considerable efforts have been made to design lead-free perovskites for different optoelectronic applications. Metal halide double perovskites with the general formula of A2MIMIIIX6or A2MIVX6could be potentially considered as green and stable alternatives for different optoelectronic applications. In this review article, we focus on the recent progress and findings on lead-free halide double perovskites for x-ray and UV-vis photodetection applications. Lead-free halide double perovskite has recently drawn a great deal of attention for superior x-ray detection due to its high absorption coefficient, large carrier mobility-lifetime product, and large bulk resistance. In addition, these materials exhibit good performance in photodetection in the UV-vis region due to high photocarrier generation and efficient carrier separation. In this review, first, we define the characteristics of lead-free double perovskite materials. The fundamental characteristics and beneficial properties of halide perovskites for direct and indirect x-ray detection are then discussed. We comprehensively review recent developments and efforts on lead-free double perovskite for x-ray detection and UV-vis photodetection. We bring out the current challenges and opportunities in the field and finally present the future outlook for developing lead-free double perovskite-based x-ray and UV-vis photodetectors for practical applications.

Abstract
Fundamental understanding of the effect of doping on the optical properties of 3D double perovskites (DPs) especially the dynamics of self-trapped excitons (STEs) is of vital importance for their optoelectronic applications. Herein, a unique strategy via Cu+ doping to achieve efficient STE emission in the alloyed lead-free Cs2 (Ag/Na)InCl6 DPs is reported. A small amount (1.0 mol%) of Cu+ doping results in boosted STE emission in the crystals, with photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield increasing from 19.0% to 62.6% and excitation band shifting from 310 to 365 nm. Temperature-dependent PL and femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopies reveal that the remarkable PL enhancement originates from the increased radiative recombination rate and density of STEs, as a result of symmetry breakdown of the STE wavefunction at the octahedral Ag+ site. These findings provide deep insights into the STE dynamics in Cu+ -doped Cs2 (Ag/Na)InCl6 , thereby laying a foundation for the future design of new lead-free DPs with efficient STE emission.

Abstract
Development of new functional materials with improved characteristics for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) and solid oxide electrolysis cells (SOECs) is one of the most important tasks of modern materials science. High electrocatalytic activity in oxygen reduction reactions (ORR), chemical and thermomechanical compatibility with solid electrolytes, as well as stability at elevated temperatures are the most important requirements for cathode materials utilized in SOFCs. Layered oxygen-deficient double perovskites possess the complex of the above-mentioned properties, being one of the most promising cathode materials operating at intermediate temperatures. The present review summarizes the data available in the literature concerning crystal structure, thermal, electrotransport-related, and other functional properties (including electrochemical performance in ORR) of these materials. The main emphasis is placed on the state-of-art approaches to improving the functional characteristics of these complex oxides.

Abstract
Herein, the structure, morphology, as well as optical properties of the powder and ceramic samples of Ba2MgWO6 are presented. Powder samples were obtained by high temperature solid-state reaction, while, for the ceramics, the SPS technique under 50-MPa pressure was applied. The morphology of the investigated samples showed some agglomeration and grains with a submicron size of 490-492 µm. The theoretical density and relative density of ceramics were calculated using the Archimedes method. The influence of sample preparation on the position, shape, and character of the host, as well as dopants emission was investigated. Sample sintering enhances regular emission of WO6 groups causing a blue shift of Ba2MgWO6 emission. Nonetheless, under X-ray excitation, only the green emission of inversion WO6 group was detected. For the ceramic doped with Eu3+ ions, the emission of both host and dopant was detected. However, for the powder efficient host to activator energy, the transfer process occurred, and only the magnetic dipole emission of Eu3+ was detected. The intensity of Nd3+ ions of Ba2MgWO6 powder sample is five times higher than for the ceramic. The sintering process reduces inversion defects and creates a highly symmetrical site of neodymium ions. The emission of Ba2MgWO6:Nd3+ consists of transitions from the 4F3/2 excited level to the 4IJ multiplet states with the dominance of the 4F3/2→4I11/2 one. The spectroscopic quality parameter and branching ratio of Nd3+ emission are presented.

Abstract
Composition engineering plays an important role in generating novel properties and decreasing the lead (Pb) toxicity for halide perovskite materials. To find out the modulation effect introduced by the composition engineering, namely,B'-site co-metal ions, in (MA)2AgBi1-xSbxBr6systems with various Bi/Sb ratios ofx= 0, 0.25, 0.75, 1.00, series of theoretical simulations and analyses are carried out. For the (MA)2AgBi1-xSbxBr6systems, the Goldschmidt tolerance factortand the octahedral factorμindicate that all samples are in a standard double perovskite structure with alternating AgBr6and Bi/SbBr6octahedra. The calculated electronic structures show that the band gap of (MA)2AgBi1-xSbxBr6decreases with the increase of Sb content, but the indirect band gaps are maintained for all samples. By analyses of the imaginary partɛ2(ω) of dielectric function and the absorption spectra, we find that all (MA)2AgBi1-xSbxBr6systems show absorption in the visible-light region. All these results indicate that the composition engineering adopted in this paper is an effective strategy to modulate the optical properties of (MA)2AgBi1-xSbxBr6systems and may open a new way to put it into applications in the fields of solar cells and other optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
The Glauber-type stochastic dynamic interpreted by the mean-field theory has been applied to investigate the dynamic magnetic properties of the Sr2FeMoO6type double perovskite structure under the time varying magnetic field. First, we used the Glauber dynamics to obtain the dynamic mean-field equations. The time varying average Fe and Mo magnetizations are examined to find the phase region of the system. The dynamic Fe and Mo magnetizations, hysteresis loop areas and correlations are calculated depending on the temperature in order to determine the nature of the first and second order phase transitions, as well as to get the dynamic transition points for different ratio of the system parameters. The dynamic phase diagrams (DPDs) are constructed in the plane of reduced temperature and external magnetic field amplitude (T,h). The DPDs contain paramagnetic (p), ferromagnetic (f), ferrimagnetic-1 (i1), ferrimagnetic-2 (i2) phases and six mixed regions, (f + p), (f + i1), (f + i2), (i1+ p), (i2+ p) and (i1+ i2). The DPDs also exhibit dynamic tricritical points and reentrant phenomena, which strongly depend on interaction parameters.

Abstract
The growing demands for optical anti-counterfeiting technology require the development of new environmentally friendly materials with single component, multimodal fluorescence and high stability. Herein, the Bi/Sb codoped Cs2Ag0.1Na0.9InCl6 lead-free double perovskite material is reported as an efficient multimodal luminescence material with excitation-wavelength-dependent emission. When excited by 360 nm UV light, dual-emission is observed at 455 and 560 nm, which comes from the 3P1-1S0 transition of Sb3+ ions and self-trapped excitons (STEs), respectively. Under the 320 nm UV lamp, the microcrystals show only a blue emission centered at 455 nm. Therefore, the Bi/Sb codoped Cs2Ag0.1Na0.9InCl6 double perovskite emits blue and yellow lights under the 320 and 360 nm UV lamp, respectively. Moreover, the obtained double perovskite shows a high PLQY up to 41% and excellent stability against both air and high temperature, which make it a promising anti-counterfeiting material.

Abstract
Iridium-based double perovskites having mixed 3d-5d-4fmagnetic sub-lattices are expected to exhibit exotic magnetic phenomenon. In this paper, we report a study of structural, magnetic and transport properties of the mixed 3d-5d-4fdouble perovskite Sm2CoIrO6(SMCO), which crystallizes in monoclinic structure with space groupP21/nand the crystal symmetry remains same throughout the measured temperature down to 15 K. High resolution synchrotron x-ray diffraction reveals an isostructural phase transition around 104 K. Magnetization measurements on polycrystalline samples indicate that SMCO orders ferrimagnetically atTFiM= 104 K; while, a second transition is observed below 10 K due to the rare-earth (Sm3+) ordering. The ferrimagnetic transition is well-understood by Néel's two-sublattice model, which is primarily ascribed to antiferromagnetic coupling between Co2+and Ir4+sub-lattices. Electronic transport measurement shows the insulting behaviour of SMCO, which follows Mott variable-range hopping conduction mechanism. However, dielectric measurements as a function of temperature rules out the presence of magneto dielectric coupling in this compound.

Abstract
Scintillators are widely used for nondestructive testing, nuclear medicine imaging, space exploration and security inspection. Recently, lead halide perovskite scintillation crystals have been brought into focus due to their effective atomic number, fast scintillation decay time, strong luminous efficiency, and tunable band gap. However, their application is limited by lead toxicity. Here we report that Ce-doping can increase sensitivity in lead-free double perovskite crystals (Cs2 NaTbCl6 ) for X-ray detection and imaging. The introduction of Ce ions as sensitizer can be used to improve the radioluminescence of the crystals. The light output of Ce : Cs2 NaTbCl6 crystals is about 52153 ph/MeV, which is 25 % higher than that of un-doped crystal. The X-ray sensitivity is significantly enhanced. Based on our scintillation film X-ray detector the detection limit is 30 nGy ⋅ s-1 , which is about 1/183 of the typical medical imaging dose. Our scintillating film has excellent imaging ability with spatial resolution of up to 10 lp/mm. This research shows that Ce : Cs2 NaTbCl6 perovskite crystal scintillators are promising materials for X-ray imaging application.

Abstract
The chemical design of new functional materials for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) is of great interest as a means for overcoming the disadvantages of traditional materials. Redox stability, carbon deposition and sulfur poisoning of the anodes are positioned as the main processes that result in the degradation of SOFC performance. In this regard, double perovskite molybdates are possible alternatives to conventional Ni-based cermets. The present review provides the fundamental properties of four members: Sr2NiMoO6-δ, Sr2MgMoO6-δ, Sr2FeMoO6-δ and Sr2Fe1.5Mo0.5O6-δ. These properties vary greatly depending on the type and concentration of the 3d-element occupying the B-position of A2BB’O6. The main emphasis is devoted to: (i) the synthesis features of undoped double molybdates, (ii) their electrical conductivity and thermal behaviors in both oxidizing and reducing atmospheres, as well as (iii) their chemical compatibility with respect to other functional SOFC materials and components of gas atmospheres. The information provided can serve as the basis for the design of efficient fuel electrodes prepared from complex oxides with layered structures.

Abstract
The synthesis and physical properties of the double perovskite (DP) compound Ba2CdReO6with the 5d1electronic configuration are reported. Three successive phases originating from a spin-orbit-entangledJeff= 3/2 state, confirmed by a reduced effective magnetic moment of 0.72 μB, were observed upon cooling. X-ray diffraction measurements revealed a structural transition from a high-temperature cubic structure to a low-temperature tetragonal structure atTs= 170 K, below which theJeff= 3/2 state was preserved. Magnetization, heat capacity, and thermal expansion measurements showed two more electronic transitions to a possible quadrupole ordered state atTq= 25 K and an antiferromagnetic order of dipoles with a ferromagnetic moment of ∼0.2 μBatTm= 12 K. These properties were compared with those of the DP's sister compounds Ba2BReO6(B= Mg, Zn, and Ca) and the chemical trend is discussed in terms of the mean-field theory for spin-orbit-coupled 5delectrons (2010 Chenet al Phys. Rev. B82174440). The DP Ba2BReO6compounds provide a unique opportunity for a systematic investigation of symmetry breaking in the presence of multipolar degrees of freedom.

Abstract
Exsolution of catalytic nanoparticles (NPs) from perovskites has arisen as a flexible method to develop high-performance functional materials with enhanced durability for energy conversion and catalytic synthesis applications. Here, we unravel the interface structure of the in situ exsolved alloy nanoparticles from the double perovskite substrate on the atomic scale. The results show that the Co-Fe alloy NPs exsolved topologically from the {100} facets terminations of the Sr2FeMo0.65Co0.35O6-δ (SFMC) double perovskite along ⟨100⟩ directions exhibiting the same orientation and identical crystal structure. The lattice planes of these two phases align and insert into each other at the interface, forming a smooth and continuous coherent connection. The presence of moiré patterns at the interface confirms the topological exsolution mechanism. The coherent interface can significantly reduce the interfacial energy and therefore stabilize the exsolved nanoparticles. Therefore, excellent and stable electrochemical performance of the NP-decorated SFMC perovskite is observed as the anode for solid oxide fuel cells. Our contribution promotes a fundamental understanding of the interface structure of the in situ exsolved alloy nanoparticles from perovskite substrate.

Abstract
A high throughput combinatorial synthesis utilizing inkjet printing of precursor inks was used to rapidly evaluate Bi-alloying into double perovskite oxides for enhanced visible light absorption. The fast visual screening of photo image scans of the library plates identifies 4-metal oxide compositions displaying an increase in light absorption, which subsequent UV-vis spectroscopy indicates is due to bandgap reduction. Structural characterization by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy demonstrates that the visually darker composition range contains Bi-alloyed Sm2MnNiO6 (double perovskite structure), of the form (Bi,Sm)2MnNiO6. Bi alloying not only increases the visible absorption but also facilitates crystallization of this structure at the relatively low annealing temperature of 615 °C. Investigation of additional seven combinations of a rare earth (RE) and a transition metal (TM) with Bi and Mn indicates that Bi-alloying on the RE site occurs with similar effect in the family of rare earth oxide double perovskites.

Abstract
Recently, white light-emitting devices (WLEDs) based on halide perovskites has been extensively studied. However, the lead toxicity and poor stability of conventional lead halide perovskites severely hinder their commercial applications. In this study, lead-free double perovskite Cs2AgInCl6 with a broadband emission was fabricated by a heat-assisted solution evaporation method, in which a compositional engineering by sodium (Na+) alloying and bismuth (Bi3+) doping was performed. The photoluminescence quantum yield was promoted from ∼1.1 to 46.4% and then to 87.2% by Na+ alloying and subsequent Bi3+ doping. In addition, the theory calculation reveals that the diffusion barrier of Cl- vacancy in Cs2AgInCl6 can be increased by Na+ alloying, which would contribute to the stability of the material. Experimentally, the resulting Cs2Ag0.7Na0.3InCl6:Bi products demonstrate a remarkable stability under heat, ultraviolet light, and moisture conditions. The above advantages make it possible for this material to be used as solid-state phosphors for WLED applications, and the Commission International de I'Eclairage color coordinates at (0.38, 0.44), correlated color temperature of 4347 K, and high color rendering index of 87.8 were achieved. More importantly, the WLED demonstrates a remarkable operation stability in air ambient, and only 4.5% emission decay occurs after a long working time for 1000 h, the longest lifetime for perovskite-based WLEDs as far as we know.
