Organic – inorganic halide perovskite (OHP) has drawn researchers’ attention working in the field of optoelectronics from last ten years due to its remarkable optical properties such as adjustable band gap, ambipolar charge transport, high optical absorption coefficients, and extended carrier diffusion lengths. OHP based memristors (memory + resistors) are a newly introduced passive two-terminal, nonlinear device used for information storage. In this work we have fabricated methyl ammonium lead iodide (MAPbI3) crystals-based device from MAPbI3 crystals. The crystals have been developed by simple solution process-based method. Developed crystals have shown highly porous geometry and trap charges across these pores facilitates higher conductivity. The fabricated device exhibits ~2.7 milli second response recovery time, which enabled elevated speed and showed hysteresis in the I-V characteristics thus demonstrating superior storage capacities. Hence, the developed device has been potential tool for next-generation non-volatile memories.

<p>Metal halide perovskites with high absorption coefficient, direct generation of free charge carriers, excellent ambipolar charge carrier transport properties, point-defect tolerance, compositional versatility and solution processability are potentially transforming the photovoltaics and optoelectronics industries. However their limited ambient stability, particularly those of iodide perovskites, obscures their use as photocatalysts especially in aqueous medium. In an unprecedented approach we have exploited the photo-absorption property of the less toxic lead-free Cs<sub>3</sub>Bi<sub>2</sub>X<sub>9 </sub>(X = Br, I) nanocrystals (NCs) to catalyse the degradation of water pollutant organic dye, methylene blue (MB) in presence of visible light at room temperature. After providing a proof-of-concept with bromide perovskites in isopropanol, the perovskites are employed as photocatalysts in water medium by designing perovskite/Ag<sub>2</sub>S and perovskite/TiO<sub>2 </sub>composite systems, with Type I (or quasi Type II) and Type II alignments, respectively. Ag<sub>2</sub>S and TiO<sub>2</sub> coatings decelerate penetration of water into the perovskite layer while facilitating charge carrier extraction. With a minimal NC loading, Cs<sub>3</sub>Bi<sub>2</sub>I<sub>9</sub>/Ag<sub>2</sub>S degrades ~90% MB within an hour. Our approach has the potential to unravel the photocatalytic properties of metal halide perovskites for a wide spectrum of real-life applications. </p>
