A theoretical analysis of the mechanism of generation of singlet oxygen on the surface of photoexcited nanoporous silicon is presented. It is shown that the nonradiative energy transfer from nanoporous silicon to the oxygen molecule by the Dexter exchange mechanism is the basis for the mechanism of singlet oxygen generation. An analytical expression is obtained and a numerical estimate of the probability of energy transfer from nanoporous silicon to an oxygen molecule is given. It was shown that its numerical value ~ (10^3-10^4) s^{-1} agrees quite well with experiment.

<p>Metal halide perovskite (MHP) materials are under extensive examination for various high performance optoelectronic applications, but their photosensitizing utilization for singlet oxygen generation has not been explored. Based on the observed characteristic NIR phosphorescence of singlet oxygen and the photosensitized decomposition of a specific singlet oxygen chemical trapper (diphenylisobenzofuran), we show herby that MAPbBr<sub>3</sub> quantum dots can significantly generate singlet oxygen with the quantum yield up to 0.34, which is the highest among nano semiconductor and nano metal material types of singlet oxygen photosensitizers. Further more, MAPbBr<sub>3</sub> quantum dots show good stability towards singlet oxygen. The mechanism of MHP as a singlet oxygen photosensitizer is also suggested to be due to triplet excitons. This finding expands new applications of MHPs in PDT, antiviral and antibacterial treatments, and pharmaceutical industry.</p>
