Solar-driven thermochemical water splitting represents one efficient route to the generation of H₂ as a clean and renewable fuel. Due to their outstanding catalytic abilities and promising solar fuel production capacities, perovskite-type redox catalysts have attracted significant attention in this regard. In the present study, the perovskite series La_1-xCa_xMn_1-yAl_yO₃ (x, y = 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, or 0.8) was fabricated using a modified Pechini method and comprehensively investigated to determine the applicability of these materials to solar H₂ production via two-step thermochemical water splitting. The thermochemical redox behaviors of these perovskites were optimized by doping at either the A (Ca) or B (Al) sites over a broad range of substitution values, from 0.2 to 0.8. Through this doping, a highly efficient perovskite (La_0.6Ca_0.4Mn_0.6Al_0.4O₃) was developed, which yielded a remarkable H₂ production rate of 429 μmol/g during two-step thermochemical H₂O splitting, going between 1400 and 1000 ℃. Moreover, the performance of the optimized perovskite was found to be eight times higher than that of the benchmark catalyst CeO₂ under the same experimental conditions. Furthermore, these perovskites also showed impressive catalytic stability during two-step thermochemical cycling tests. These newly developed La_1-xCa_xMn_1-yAl_yO₃ redox catalysts appear to have great potential for future practical applications in thermochemical solar fuel production.
