The tin iodide borate Sn[BO]I was synthesized via a hydrothermal synthesis and crystallizes in the centrosymmetric space group Pbca (no. 61) possessing lattice parameters of a = 1071.8(3), b = 852.3(2), and c = 2016.8(5) pm and Z = 8. Characteristic for the structure are infinite chains along the b axis, built up of three membered BO rings consisting of one BO unit and two corner-sharing BO tetrahedra. The three tin cations are oriented differently: one cation is located layer-like between the infinite chains, and the other two cations show an orientation in a row with the infinite chain. In this structure, only one of the three tin cations exhibits a coordination to the halogen anion. The new centrosymmetric tin iodide borate Sn[BO]I was investigated by single-crystal diffraction, vibrational spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction data, thermogravimetry, differential scanning calorimetry, and DFT calculations.

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.

Although solar cells have the potential to create an endless amount of electrical power, their comparatively low power conversion efficiency draws the curiosity of both academics and industry. The primary goal of this research is to examine the performance of lead-free perovskite solar cells that use methyl ammonium tin iodide (CHNHSnI) as the active material. The SCAPS-1D programme is employed for the simulation and analysis of the solar cells.
