Lead-halide perovskites have demonstrated astonishing increases in power conversion efficiency in photovoltaics over the last decade. The most efficient perovskite devices now outperform industry-standard multi-crystalline silicon solar cells, despite the fact that perovskites are typically grown at low temperature using simple solution-based methods. However, the toxicity of lead and its ready solubility in water are concerns for widespread implementation. These challenges, alongside the many successes of the perovskites, have motivated significant efforts across multiple disciplines to find lead-free and stable alternatives which could mimic the ability of the perovskites to achieve high performance with low temperature, facile fabrication methods. This Review discusses the computational and experimental approaches that have been taken to discover lead-free perovskite-inspired materials, and the recent successes and challenges in synthesizing these compounds. The atomistic origins of the extraordinary performance exhibited by lead-halide perovskites in photovoltaic devices is discussed, alongside the key challenges in engineering such high-performance in alternative, next-generation materials. Beyond photovoltaics, this Review discusses the impact perovskite-inspired materials have had in spurring efforts to apply new materials in other optoelectronic applications, namely light-emitting diodes, photocatalysts, radiation detectors, thin film transistors and memristors. Finally, the prospects and key challenges faced by the field in advancing the development of perovskite-inspired materials towards realization in commercial devices is discussed.

“…Bismuth and antimony are in the same group of metals and have very similar properties. One should remember that bismuth sulfoiodide (BiSI) belongs to the same chemical family as SbSI does [34][35][36], and the crystallographic [37] as well as electronic structures [18,38] of the both compounds are similar.…”

“…BiSI possesses dual links [(BiSI) ∞ ] 2 associated by a double helical axis and connected by Bi–S bonds. The dual links may be deemed to have no interaction, and one dual link can be regarded as the calculation model of BiSI, as can be seen in Scheme . BiSI displays many important qualities.…”

Novel BiSI promoted n–p–n double heterojunction multi-interface photocatalyst BiSI/MoS2/CdS was constructed. BiSI is applied to the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution. It possesses a small band gap and a strong optical absorption coefficient; therefore, the optical absorption scope and coefficient of MoS2/CdS have been effectively enhanced by compounding with BiSI. The continuous heterojunctions strengthened the function of the single junction and guided the carriers’ transfer direction; thus, the redox reactions occur at spatially separated sites. The built-in electric field along the radial direction of the BiSI nanorod and MoS2 interlayer helps to transport carriers within the lifetime. Carrier dynamics is optimized by the multi-interface structure. In general, a new material BiSI is introduced to construct a multi-interface structure to optimize carrier dynamics, which resulted in a 46-fold increase in hydrogen production efficiency.
