Abstract
Tin halide perovskites are rising as promising candidates for next-generation optoelectronic materials due to their good optoelectronic properties and relatively low toxicity. However, the high defect density and the easy oxidation of Sn2+ have limited their optoelectronic performance. Herein, we report the treatment of the FASnI3 (formamidinium tin, FA) perovskite film by a bifunctional cesium fluoride (CsF) additive, which improves the film quality and significantly enhances the photoelectric performance. The responsivity of the perovskite-based photodetector (PD) with an optimal CsF concentration of 15% is over 60 times larger than that of the PD without CsF. It indicates that both the Cs substitution and the fluoride anion additive from CsF inhibit the oxidation of Sn2+, optimize the crystal growth, and passivate the defects, demonstrating the dual roles of the CsF additive in improving the photoelectric performance. This work offers valuable insights into the additive selection for developing high-quality tin-based perovskite films and devices.
