Structure and properties of an inorganic perovskite CsSnI demonstrated its potential as a light-harvester or electron-hole transport material; however, its optoelectronic properties are poorer than those of lead-based perovskites. Here, we report the way of light tuning of absorption and transport properties of cesium iodostannate(IV) CsSnI via partial heterovalent substitution of tin for indium. Light absorption and optical bandgaps of materials have been investigated by UV-vis absorption and photoluminescent spectroscopies. Low-temperature electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to study the kind of paramagnetic centers in materials.

Article Synopsis
- Halide perovskites, particularly tin halides, are gaining attention as thermoelectric materials due to their low thermal conductivity and good charge transport.
- Partial substitution of Sn (II) with Ge (II) in CsSnGeI perovskite thin films enhances stability, keeping the material in the black orthorhombic phase after prolonged exposure to air.
- Ge substitution significantly reduces lattice thermal conductivity and improves the understanding of phonon behavior in these mixed metal perovskites, contributing to their potential in thermoelectric applications.

Metal halide perovskites have shown exceptionally slow hot-carrier cooling, which has been attributed to various physical mechanisms without reaching a consensus. Here, experiment and theory are combined to unveil the carrier cooling process in formamidinium (FA) and caesium (Cs) tin triiodide thin films. Through impulsive vibrational spectroscopy and molecular dynamics, much shorter phonon dephasing times of the hybrid perovskite, which accounts for the larger blueshift in the photoluminescence seen at high excitation density for FASnI compared to CsSnI is reported.

The quantum-dot-in-perovskite matrix (DIM) is an emerging class of semiconductors for optoelectronics enabled by their complementary charge transport properties and stability improvements. However, a detailed understanding of the pure electrical properties in DIM is still in its early stage. Here, we developed PbS quantum dot-in-CsSnI matrix solids exhibiting improved electrical properties and enhanced stability.

Tin halide perovskites are promising for optoelectronics, although their sensitivity to ambient conditions due to Sn(II) oxidation presents a challenge. Encapsulation techniques can mitigate degradation and facilitate advanced studies of the intrinsic properties. To study and improve the ambient stability of CsSnBr and CsSnI nanocrystal (NC) thin films, we explored various encapsulation methods: organic, inorganic, and hybrid.

Eco-friendly Sn-based perovskites show significant potential for high-performance second near-infrared window light-emitting diodes (900 nm - 1700 nm). Nevertheless, achieving efficient and stable Sn-based perovskite second near-infrared window light-emitting diodes remains challenging due to the propensity of Sn to oxidize, resulting in detrimental Sn-induced defects and compromised device performance. Here, we present a targeted strategy to eliminate Sn-induced defects through moisture-triggered hydrolysis of tin tetrahalide, without degrading Sn in the CsSnI film.
