This review examines the primary origins of V_(loss), mainly non-radiative recombination associated with undercoordinated Sn sites, deep-level defects, and the oxidation of Sn^(2+), all of which elevate defect densities and accelerate recombination. FF degradation is further linked to Shockley–Read–Hall (SRH) trap-assisted recombination, reflected in increased ideality factors. The review also highlights advanced characterization approaches thermal admittance spectroscopy, drive-level capacitance profiling, and emerging machine-learning tools for probing carrier dynamics and quantifying non-radiative pathways. Although progress has been made, matching the V_(oc) and FF of Pb-based PSCs remains challenging due to the intertwined effects of oxidation chemistry, defect physics, and interfacial energetics. Recent strategies, such as molecular coordination, surface passivation, compositional engineering, and optimized charge-transport interlayers, show promise in suppressing recombination and improving energy alignment. Continued advances in defect passivation, oxidation control, and interface engineering are expected to be key to enabling efficient and environmentally sustainable Sn-based photovoltaic technologies.展开更多

文摘Eco-friendly lead-free tin(Sn)-based perovskites have drawn much attention in the field of photovoltaic s,and the highest power conversion efficiency(PCE)of Sn-based perovskite solar cells(PSCs)has been recently approaching 15%.However,the PCE improvement of Sn-based PSCs has reached bottleneck,and an unambiguous guidance beyond traditional trial-and-error process is highly desired for further boosting their PCE.In this work,machine learning(ML)approach based on artificial neural network(ANN)algorithm is adopted to guide the development of Sn-based PSCs by learning from currently available data.Two models are designed to predict the bandgap of newly designed Sn-based perovskites and photovoltaic performance trends of the PSCs,and the practicability of the models are verified by real experimental data.Moreover,by analyzing the physical mechanisms behind the predicted trends,the typical characteristics of Sn-based perovskites can be derived even no relevant inputs are provided,demonstrating the robustness of the developed models.Based on the models,it is predicted that wide bandgap Sn-based PSCs with optimized interfacial energy level alignment could obtain promising PCE breaking 20%.At last,critical suggestions for future development of Sn-based PSCs are provided.This work opens a new avenue for guiding and promoting the development of high-performing Sn-based PSCs.

文摘Recently,Coordination Polymers(CPs)have been widely utilized as energy storage materials for reversible Lithium-Ion Batteries(LIBs)benefiting from their tunable building blocks and adjusted electrochemical properties.However,the unsatisfied electrochemical behavior of CPs with poor conductivity and sluggish ion transport kinetics is still a bottle-neck for their large-scale energy storage applications in LIBs.Herein,we display the rational fabrication of a conductive Sn-based coordination polymer(Sn-DHTPA)via judiciously choosing suitable building units.The Sn-DHTPA is employed as anode for LIBs,exhibiting superior reversible storage capacity of 1142.6 m A h g^(-1) at 0.1 A g^(-1) after 100 cycles and impressive rate storage capability of 287.7 m A h g^(-1)at 20 A g^(-1).More importantly,a robust cycling performance of 205.5 m A h g^(-1) at an extra-high current density of 20 A g^(-1) are observed without remarkable capacity-fading up to1000 cycles.The behavior superiority of Sn-DHTPA is related to its advanced architecture with abundant lithium storage sites,high electrical conductivity and rapid lithium transport.A series of ex-situ characterizations reveal that the impressive lithium storage capacity is contributed by the redox active sites of both the aromatic linker and metal center related to in-situ generated metallic nanoparticles dispersed in the skeleton.
文摘Tin(Sn)-based perovskite solar cells(PSCs)have received increasing attention in the domain of photovoltaics due to their environmentally friendly nature.In this paper,numerical modeling and simulation of hole transport material(HTM)-free PSC based on methyl ammonium tin triiodide(CH_(3) NH_(3) SnI_(3))was performed using a one-dimensional solar cell capacitance simulator(SCAPS-1D)software.The eff ect of perovskite thickness,interface defect density,temperature,and electron transport material(ETM)on the photovoltaic performance of the device was explored.Prior to optimization,the device demonstrated a power conversion effi ciency(PCE)of 8.35%,fi ll factor(FF)of 51.93%,short-circuit current density(J_(sc))of 26.36 mA/cm 2,and open circuit voltage(V_(oc))of 0.610 V.Changing the above parameters individually while keeping others constant,the obtained optimal absorber thickness was 1.0μm,the interface defect density was 1010 cm-2,the temperature was 290 K,and the TiO 2 thickness was 0.01μm.On simulating with the optimized data,the fi nal device gave a PCE of 11.03%,FF of 50.78%,J_(sc) of 29.93 mA/cm 2,and V_(oc) of 0.726 V.Comparing the optimized and unoptimized metric parameters,an improvement of~32.10%in PCE,~13.41%in J_(sc),and~19.02%in V_(oc) were obtained.Therefore,the results of this study are encouraging and can pave the path for developing highly effi cient PSCs that are cost-eff ective,eco-friendly,and comparable to state-of-the-art.

文摘Tin (Sn)-based halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) offer a promising lead-free alternative with favorable bandgaps and strong absorption, yet their performance is limited by substantial open-circuit voltage (V_(oc)) and fill factor (FF) losses. This review examines the primary origins of V_(loss), mainly non-radiative recombination associated with undercoordinated Sn sites, deep-level defects, and the oxidation of Sn^(2+), all of which elevate defect densities and accelerate recombination. FF degradation is further linked to Shockley–Read–Hall (SRH) trap-assisted recombination, reflected in increased ideality factors. The review also highlights advanced characterization approaches thermal admittance spectroscopy, drive-level capacitance profiling, and emerging machine-learning tools for probing carrier dynamics and quantifying non-radiative pathways. Although progress has been made, matching the V_(oc) and FF of Pb-based PSCs remains challenging due to the intertwined effects of oxidation chemistry, defect physics, and interfacial energetics. Recent strategies, such as molecular coordination, surface passivation, compositional engineering, and optimized charge-transport interlayers, show promise in suppressing recombination and improving energy alignment. Continued advances in defect passivation, oxidation control, and interface engineering are expected to be key to enabling efficient and environmentally sustainable Sn-based photovoltaic technologies.

文摘The excessive consumption of fossil fuels increases carbon dioxide(CO_(2))emissions,and the consequent greenhouse effect resulting from higher levels of this gas in the atmosphere has a significant impact on the environment and climate.This has necessitated the development of environmentally friendly and efficient methods for CO_(2)conversion.The carbon dioxide electroreduction reaction(CO_(2)RR),which is driven by electricity generated by renewable energy sources(e.g.,wind and solar)to convert CO_(2)into value-added fuels or chemicals,is regarded as a promising prospective path toward carbon cycling.Among the various products,formate,with its relatively simple preparation process,has broad application prospects,and can be used as fuel,hydrogen storage material,and raw material for downstream chemicals.Sn-based oxide electrocatalysts have the advantages of being inexpensive and nontoxic.In addition,these catalysts offer high product selectivity and are regarded as promising catalysts for the electrochemical reduction of CO_(2)to formate.In this review,we first clarify the reaction mechanisms and factors that influence the reduction of CO_(2)to formate,and then provide some examples of technologies that could be used to study the evolution of catalysts during the reaction.In particular,we focus on traditional Sn-based oxides(SnO_(2))and novel Sn-based perovskite oxides that have been developed for use in the field of CO_(2)RR in recent years by considering their synthesis,catalytic performance,optimization strategies,and intrinsic principles.Finally,the current challenges and opportunities for Sn-based oxide electrocatalysts are discussed.The perspectives and latest trends presented in this review are expected to inspire researchers to contribute more efforts toward comprehensively optimizing the performance of the CO_(2)RR to produce formate.

文摘Tin(Sn)-based perovskite solar cells(PSCs)have recently made inspiring progress,and certified power conversion efficiency(PCE)has reached impressive value of 14.8%.However,it is still challenging to realize efficient and stable 3D Sn-based PSCs due to the fast crystallization and easy Sn^(2+)oxidation of Sn-based perovskite.Herein,we reported the utilization of a reductive ionic liquid,methylamine formate(MAFa),to drive the controlled crystallization process and suppress Sn^(2+)oxidation of FASnI_(3)perovskite film.The coordination of C=O and Sn^(2+)and the hydrogen bonding of N-H···I between the MAFa and FASnI_(3)precursors are shown to be responsible for retarding the crystallization of FASnI_(3)during film-forming process,which promotes the oriented growth and reduced defect traps of the film.Moreover,the strong reducibility of–CHO groups in Fa−suppresses the oxidation of Sn^(2+)in the film.As a result,MAFa-modified 3D PSCs device could reach champion PCE of up to 8.50%,which is enhanced by 26.11%compared to the control device with PCE of 6.74%.Most importantly,the MAFa-modified device shows much improved stability compared to the control device under same conditions without encapsulation.This work adds key building blocks for further boosting the PCE and stability of Sn-based PSCs.

文摘Sn-based perovskites are promising thin-film photovoltaic materials for their ideal bandgap and the eco-friendliness of Sn,but the performance of Sn-based perovskite solar cells is hindered by the short carrier diffusion length and large defect density in nominally-synthesized Sn-based perovskite films.Herein we demonstrate that a long carrier diffusion length is achievable in quasi-2D Sn-based perovskite films consisting of high-member low-dimensional Ruddlesden-Popper(RP)phases with a preferred crystal orientation distribution.The key to the film synthesis is the use of a molecular additive formed by phenylethylammonium cations and optimally mixed halide-pseudohalide anions,which favorably tailors the quasi-2D Sn-based perovskite crystallization kinetics.The high-member RP film structure effectively enhances device short-circuit current density,giving rise to an increased power conversion efficiency(PCE)of 14.6%.The resulting device demonstrates a near-unity shelf stability upon1,000 h in nitrogen.A high reproductivity is also achieved with a count of 50 devices showing PCEs within a narrow range from minimum 13.0%to maximum 14.6%.

文摘The construction of intermetallic compounds(IMCs)connection layers with special compositions by adding small amounts of alloying elements has been proven to be an effective strategy for improving the reliability of electronic component interconnect.However,the synergistic effect mechanism of multi-component alloy compositions on the growth behavior of IMCs is not clear.Herein,we successfully prepared a new quaternary alloy solder with a composition of Sn-0.7Cu-0.175Pt-0.025Al(wt%)using the high-throughput screening(HTS)method.The results showed that it possesses excellent welding performance with an inhibition rate over 40%on the growth of IMCs layers.For Cu_(6)Sn_(5),the co-doping of Al and Pt not only greatly improves its thermodynamic stability,but also effectively suppresses the phase transition.Meanwhile,the co-doping of Al and Pt also significantly delays the generation time of Kirkendall defects.The substitution sites of Al and Pt in Cu_(6)Sn_(5)have been explored using atomic resolution imaging and advanced data informatics,indicating that Al and Pt preferentially substitute Sn and Cu atoms,respectively,to generate(Cu,Pt)_(6)(Sn,Al)_(5).A one-dimensional(1D)kinetic model of the IMCs layer growth at the Sn solder/Cu substrate interface was derived and validated,and the results showed that the error of the derived mathematical model is less than 5%.Finally,the synergistic mechanism of Al and Pt co-doping on the growth rate of Cu_(6)Sn_(5)was further elucidated.This work provides a feasible route for the design and development of multi-component alloy solders.

文摘Based on the available experimental data,the Bi-Ni binary system was optimized thermodynamically by the CALPHAD method.The solution phases,including liquid,fcc_A1（Ni） and rhombohedral_A7（Bi）,were described as substitutional solution phases,of which the excess Gibbs energies were expressed with the Redlich-Kister polynomial.The intermetallic compound,BiNi,was modeled using three sublattices（Bi）（Ni,Va）（Ni,Va） considering its crystal structure（NiAs-type） and the compatibility of thermodynamic database in the multi-component systems,while Bi3Ni was treated as a stoichiometric compound.Finally,a set of self-consistent thermodynamic parameters formulating the Gibbs energies of various phases in this binary system were obtained.The calculated results are in reasonable agreement with the reported experimental data.

文摘Owing to its high theoretical capacity and low cost,Sn has attracted significant attention in sodium-ion batteries.However,the slow kinetics of electrochemical reactions and the rapid decay of capacity resulting from drastic changes in the volume of Sn,as well as persistent side reactions between Sn and the organic electrolyte during the(de)sodium process,have limited its commercialization.To improve the electrochemical performance of Sn-based materials,the bottom-up method is normally used to prepare carbon-coated nanoparticles.However,its complex preparation processes and harsh conditions make it unsuitable for practical applications.Herein,a carbon-coated hybrid crystal composite(Sn/SnO_(x)@C)was prepared using an up-bottom method with commercial Sn/SnO nanoparticles.Various effects accelerate the electrochemical kinetics and inhibit the coarsening of Sn crystals.The Sn/SnO_(x)@C composite electrode exhibited capacity retention of 80.7%even after approximately 1000 cycles(360.4 mAh·g^(−1)) at a current density of 1 A·g^(−1).The high-load Na_(3)V_(2)(PO4)3||Sn/SnO_(x)@C full cell presents a capacity retention rate of 91.7%after 150 cycles at the current density of 0.5 A·g^(−1).This work may significantly accelerate the commercialization of the Sn/SnO_(x)@C composite in sodium-ion batteries with high energy density.

文摘The growth of Au-Sn intermetallic compounds(IMCs) is a major concern to the reliability of solder joints in microelectronic,optoelectronic and micro-electronic-mechanical system(MEMS) which has a layer of Au metallization on the surface of components or leads.This paper presented the growth behavior of Au-Sn IMCs at interfaces of Au metallization and Sn-based solder joints with the addition of Cu alloying element during aging process,and growth coefficients of the Au-Sn IMCs were calculated.Results on the interfacial reaction between Sn-xCu solders and Au metallization during aging process show that three layers of Au-Sn IMCs including AuSn,AuSn2 and AuSn4 formed at the interface region.The thickness of each Au-Sn IMC layer vs square root of aging time follows linear relationship.Calculation of the IMC growth coefficients shows that the diffusion coefficients decrease with the addition Cu elements,which indicates that Cu addition suppresses the growth of Au-Sn IMCs layer.

文摘Tin-based perovskites have emerged as promising semiconductor materials for high-performance field-effect transistors(FETs).However,poor film quality of tin-based perovskites seriously impedes carrier transport and degrades operational stability of the FETs.In this study,we propose a bifunctional additive strategy employing 4-fluorophenethylamine acetate(FPEAAc)to regulate the crystallization of Sn-based perovskites,resulting in preferentially oriented,fully covered and large-grained perovskite films.The FPEA+cations induced the templating growth of perovskite octahedron,while Ac^(-)anions retard the crystallization growth to promote uniform films.To further enhance grain size while maintaining pinhole-free morphology,propylammonium acetate(PAAc)additive is introduced as an auxiliary additive to further delay crystal growth.The optimized FETs demonstrate a high hole mobility of~40 cm^(2)V^(-1)s^(-1)along with excellent operational stability.This work establishes a co-additive strategy that precisely regulates tin-based perovskite crystallization through templated growth coupled with retarded crystallization,offering novel insights into regulating the film growth of Sn-based perovskites,and thereby advancing the development of high-performance perovskite FETs.
