Original Abstract

Recently, halide perovskites have been widely explored for high-efficiency photocatalysis or photoelectrochemical (PEC) cells. Here, in order to make an efficient photoanode electrode for the degradation of pollutants, concretely 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT), nanoscale cesium lead bromide (CsPbBr3) perovskite was directly formed on the surface of mesoporous titanium dioxide (meso-TiO2) film using a two-step spin-coating process. This photoelectrode recorded a photocurrent of up to 3.02 +/- 0.03 mA/cm(2) under standard AM 1.5G (100 mW/cm(2)) illumination through an optimization process such as introducing a thin aluminum oxide (Al2O3) coating layer. Furthermore, to supply high voltage for efficient oxidation of MBT without an external bias, we developed a new photovoltaic/PEC tandem system using a methylammonium lead iodide (MAPbI(3)) based mini-module consisting of three solar cells interconnected in series and confirmed its successful operation. This approach looks very promising due to its applicability to various PEC reactions.
