Highlights

  • Perovskites are currently on everyone’s lips and have made it in high-impact scientific journals because of the revolutionary hybrid organic–inorganic lead halide perovskite materials for solar cells

  • Besides oxygen mobility and the variety of element combinations adopting the perovskite-type structure, a further property is interesting for catalytic applications—the possibility to exploit them as a precursor of active catalysts upon exsolution of transition metals in the form of particles at their surface

  • Transition metals have been shown to experience reversible segregation: Reduced metal nanoparticles are exposed at the moment they need to be used for a catalytic process

Summary

Introduction

Perovskites are currently on everyone’s lips and have made it in high-impact scientific journals because of the revolutionary hybrid organic–inorganic lead halide perovskite materials for solar cells. The interest for perovskite-type oxides lies in their vast compositional and structural variability that can be exploited to tailor physico-chemical properties such as oxygen mobility and vacancies, redox, as well as electronic and ionic conductivities for specific technical application.
