Abstract
The organic–inorganic hybrid perovskite compounds have been extensively studied since the dawn of a new era in the field of photovoltaic applications. Up to now, perovskites have proven to be the most promising in terms of power conversion efficiency; however, their main disadvantages for use in solar cells are toxicity and chemical instability. Therefore, it is essential to develop a hybrid perovskite that can be replaced with lead-free materials. This review focuses on the possibility of applying lead-free organic–inorganic perovskite types [NH3(CH2)nNH3]MCl4 (n = 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6; M = Mn, Co, Cu, Zn, and Cd) crystals. We are seeking organic–inorganic hybrid perovskite materials with very high temperature stability or without phase transition temperature, and thermal stability. Thus, by considering the characteristics according to the methylene lengths and the various transition metals, we aim to identify improved materials meeting the criteria mentioned above. Consequently, the physicochemical properties of organic–inorganic hybrid perovskite [NH3(CH2)nNH3]MCl4 regarding the effects of various transition metal ions of the anion and the methylene lengths of the cation are expected to promote the development and application of lead-free hybrid perovskite solar cells.
