Methylammonium tin halide

Methylammonium tin halides are solid compounds with perovskite structure and a chemical formula of CH3NH3SnX3, where X = I, Br or Cl. They are promising alternatives to the led-free perovskites as the photoactive materials. Tin-based perovskites have shown excellent mobility in transistors [1] which gives them an opportunity to be explored more for solar cell applications.

Sn-based perovskites, despite being regarded as semiconductors, often display metallic-like behavior due to the inadvertent and/or spontaneous hole carrier doping resulting from the easy oxidation of Sn2+ to Sn4+.[2] [3]
