Abstract Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) materials are progressing as potential candidates for the future generation of photovoltaics. Despite the most efficient photovoltaic performance, lead-based perovskite materials are not considered for commercialization due to the high toxicity of lead. One of the promising alternatives is tin (Sn)-based perovskites, which exhibits equivalent ionic size as lead and outstanding absorption properties. However, Sn-based perovskite materials have stability and low-performance issues because of the easy oxidation of Sn2+ to Sn4+and fast crystallization. This paper gives a focused overview of the notable recent studies to address the stability and low-performance challenges of Sn-based hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite (Sn-HOIP) materials for solar cells by using functional additives. To date, the addition of SnF2 additive in the methylammonium tin iodide-based PSCs has shown the highest efficiency of 7.78% and maintains 70% of original efficiency over 200-hours. In the case of formamidinium tin iodide-based PSCs, the addition of phenylhydrazine hydrochloride significantly increases the power conversion efficiency to 11.40% from 5.60% for a pristine device. However, further improvement in the stability and efficiency of Sn-based PSCs requires a molecular-level understanding of the role of existing and new candidates of additives tailored for evolving Sn-HOIP materials.

Abstract Although the all-inorganic perovskite CsPbI3 exhibits superior thermal- and photo-stability compared with organic-inorganic perovskites, formation of the photoactive α-phase requires sintering at approximately 320 oC. Herein, we report the partial substitution of Ge2+ ions for Pb2+ as a means of tuning the stability of the material and enabling α-phase formation at 90 oC.

AbstractThe toxicity issue of lead hinders large-scale commercial production and photovoltaic field application of lead halide perovskites. Some novel non- or low-toxic perovskite materials have been explored for development of environmentally friendly lead-free perovskite solar cells (PSCs). This review studies the substitution of equivalent/heterovalent metals for Pb based on first-principles calculation, summarizes the theoretical basis of lead-free perovskites, and screens out some promising lead-free candidates with suitable bandgap, optical, and electrical properties. Then, it reports notable achievements for the experimental studies of lead-free perovskites to date, including the crystal structure and material bandgap for all of lead-free materials and photovoltaic performance and stability for corresponding devices. The review finally discusses challenges facing the successful development and commercialization of lead-free PSCs and predicts the prospect of lead-free PSCs in the future.
