Organic-inorganic hybrid lead halide perovskites have attracted much attention in the photoelectric field due to their excellent characteristics, such as a tunable band gap, simple fabrication process, and high photoelectric conversion efficiency. However, the commercialization of the perovskite-based devices still faces many challenges, one of which is the inclusion of the toxic lead. Herein, we demonstrated a two-step solution method for synthesizing tin-based perovskite nanowires (NWs) with their application in photodetectors (PDs). By changing the halide exchange time and the Sn content in the precursor, the dark current of the CsPbSn(BrI) perovskite NW PDs increased with increasing content of tin and decreased with increasing Br concentration, and the lowest dark current with a value of 0.672 nA at 1 V was achieved for the perovskite alloy NW PDs synthesized with 0.5 mg mL SnI. Our optimized perovskite alloy NW PDs showed high performance with a linear dynamic range of up to 120 dB, a rising/falling time of 4.25/4.82 ms, and a detectivity of 2 × 10 Jones. In addition, our Sn-based perovskite NW devices could maintain good performance after storing in air for 30 days. These results demonstrated good practical application for the Sn-based perovskite NW devices.

This study presents the synthesis and characterization of CsNaBiCl nanocrystals (NCs) doped with varying concentrations of In to improve their luminescent properties. Utilizing a colloidal solution method, we systematically varied the In concentration to identify the optimal alloying level for enhancing the photoluminescence (PL) properties of the CsNaBiCl NCs. Structural analysis confirmed that the In-alloyed NCs maintained high crystallinity and a uniform cubic shape.

Metal nanocatalysts supported on oxide scaffolds have been widely used in energy storage and conversion reactions. So far, the main research is still focused on the growth, density, size, and activity enhancement of exsolved nanoparticles (NPs). However, the lack of precise regulation of the type and composition of NPs elements under reduction conditions has restricted the architectural development of in situ exsolution systems.

We report the synthesis of ethylammonium lead iodide (EAPbI) colloidal nanocrystals as another member of the lead halide perovskites family. The insertion of an unusually large -cation (274 pm in diameter) in the perovskite structure, hitherto considered unlikely due to the unfavorable Goldschmidt tolerance factor, results in a significantly larger lattice parameter compared to the Cs-, methylammonium- and formamidinium-based lead halide perovskite homologues. As a consequence, EAPbI nanocrystals are highly unstable, evolving to a nonperovskite δ-EAPbI polymorph within 1 day.

2D Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) perovskites, upon inclusion of a chiral amine, exhibit chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS). Although alloying at the halogen site in MBA-based RPs (MBA: methylbenzylammonium) is one of the suitable routes to tune the CISS effect, the mixed-halide RP perovskites exhibited complete suppression of chirality when probed through circular dichroism (CD). Here, we present the CISS effect in a series of mixed-halide RP perovskites.

Article Synopsis
- Tandem solar cells enhance efficiency beyond single-junction cells by using low bandgap materials, achieved by substituting lead with tin in perovskite structures.
- The study introduces a scalable method for creating formamidinium lead tin iodide films through sequential thermal evaporation, resulting in highly oriented and crystalline layers.
- Key findings reveal that sTE films exhibit better photoconductance compared to traditional spin-coated samples, with impressive carrier lifetimes and mobilities, highlighting the technique's efficacy for high-quality low bandgap perovskite materials.
