In this talk, I will start with the brief introduction of first principles electronic structure calculations in perovskite materials, and how it could be connected to the Computational Screening for achieving highly efficient and stable solar cell materials [1, 2]. Next, I will delve into the fundamentals and possible implications of Rashba phenomena in both hybrid and inorganic perovskite materials [3-5]. The fundamental interplay between structural distortions and the Rashba splitting in the considered one-dimensional system under the influence of compression along with the evolution of spin texture could hold great potential for the pursuit of sustainable energy. The rest of the talk would be devoted to theoretical understanding of piezochromism, where hydrostatic pressure could be employed as an effective tool, giving rise to novel crystal structures and optical properties, while it has proven to be an alternative to chemical pressure [4,5]. I will end my talk touching upon our recent successful endeavour of pre-intercalation mechanism in Li-ion battery based on transition pathway prediction [6].
