AI Article Synopsis
- Tin-based halide perovskite materials are being used in lead-free solar cells, but their power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) are limited due to the oxidation of Sn.
- A two-step chemical fabrication method is developed to create high-quality methylammonium tin iodide (MASnI) films from hydrazinium tin iodide (HASnI), enhancing grain size and crystallization.
- The resulting MASnI films suppress oxidation and enable mesoporous perovskite solar cells to achieve a maximum PCE of 7.13% with consistent performance.
Article Abstract
Tin-based halide perovskite materials have been successfully employed in lead-free perovskite solar cells, but the overall power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) have been limited by the high carrier concentration from the facile oxidation of Sn to Sn . Now a chemical route is developed for fabrication of high-quality methylammonium tin iodide perovskite (MASnI ) films: hydrazinium tin iodide (HASnI ) perovskite film is first solution-deposited using presursors hydrazinium iodide (HAI) and tin iodide (SnI ), and then transformed into MASnI via a cation displacement approach. With the two-step process, a dense and uniform MASnI film is obtained with large grain sizes and high crystallization. Detrimental oxidation is suppressed by the hydrazine released from the film during the transformation. With the MASnI as light harvester, mesoporous perovskite solar cells were prepared, and a maximum power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 7.13 % is delivered with good reproducibility.

To advance off-grid energy solutions, developing flexible photobatteries capable of direct light charging is essential. This study presents an innovative photobattery architecture that incorporates zinc oxide (ZnO) as an electron-transporting and hole-blocking layer, combined with a hybrid methylammonium tin iodide composite with poly-triarylamine (MASnI/PTAA) for light absorption and hole transport. PTAA facilitates efficient hole transport to the anode, thereby enhancing charge separation and reducing recombination losses.

Tin-lead perovskites provide an ideal bandgap for narrow-bandgap perovskites in all-perovskite tandem solar cells, fundamentally improving power conversion efficiency. However, light-induced degradation in ambient air is a major issue that can hinder the long-term operational stability of these devices. Understanding the specifics of what occurs during this pathway provides the direction for improving device stability.

In recent years, metal halide perovskite-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have garnered significant attention as they display high quantum efficiency, good spectral tunability, and are expected to have low processing costs. When the peak emission wavelength is beyond 900 nm the interest is even higher because of the critical importance of this wavelength for biomedical imaging, night vision, and sensing. However, many challenges persist in fabricating these high-performance NIR LEDs, particularly for wavelengths above 950 nm, which appear to be limited by low radiance and poor stability.

Tin-based perovskites are more environmentally friendly than their lead-based alternatives. Perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) using iodide-based tin perovskites have achieved considerable advancements in efficiency. However, PeLEDs using bromide-based tin perovskites have not progressed as rapidly, primarily due to challenges in controlling their crystallization processes.
