This article reviews PEO-based electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries.

Recent progress and strategies toward solar water splitting over heterogeneous semiconductors are reviewed and the challenges and future perspectives are suggested.

The vast majority of perovskite solar cell research has focused on organic–inorganic lead trihalide perovskites; herein, we present working inorganic CsPbI₃perovskite solar cells for the first time.

First-principles calculations help to understand the fundamental mechanisms of the emerging perovskite solar cells and guide further developments.

The recent progress in the synthesis, properties and photocatalytic applications of carbon quantum dots (CQDs) has been elaborately demonstrated, and some perspectives on the challenges and opportunities for future exploration in this arena are discussed.

The stability of encapsulated planar-structured CH₃NH₃PbI₃ (MAPbI₃) perovskite solar cells (PSCs) was investigated under various simulated environmental conditions.

The fundamentals of water electrolysis, current popular electrocatalysts developed for cathodic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in liquid electrolyte water electrolysis are reviewed and discussed.
