Tin Halides (57)

Tin halides, particularly tin diiodide and tin tetraiodide, possess narrow band gaps and exhibit optoelectronic properties similar to their lead-based counterparts, making them promising alternatives for perovskite solar cell materials. Their non-toxic nature further increases their suitability for practical applications. These characteristics enable tin halides to serve as absorber layers in perovskite solar cells, offering a potential solution to the toxicity concerns of lead-based compounds while preserving high photoelectric conversion efficiency.
