Enhanced photocatalytic activity and mechanism insight of copper-modulated lead-free Cs₂AgSbCl₆ double perovskite microcrystals.

ABSTRACT: Lead halide perovskites are prospective candidates for CO₂ photoconversion. Herein, we report copper-doped lead-free Cs₂AgSbCl₆ double perovskite microcrystals (MCs) for gas-solid phase photocatalytic CO₂ reduction. The 0.2Cu@Cs₂AgSbCl₆ double perovskite MCs display unprecedented CO₂ photoreduction capability with CO and CH₄ yields of 412 and 128 μmol g^-1, respectively. The ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy reveals the enhanced separation of photoexcited carriers in copper-doped Cs₂AgSbCl₆ MCs. The active sites and reaction intermediates on the surface of the doped Cs₂AgSbCl₆ are dynamically monitored and precisely unraveled based on the <
