2-aminobenzothiazole: A heteroatom additive improving efficiency and stability of tin-halide perovskite solar cells (SnPSCs)

Caption

Researchers from Japan used 2-aminobenzothiazole as an additive in quasi-two-dimensional SnPSCs to regulate crystal growth, passivate defects, and suppress tin oxidation and iodide migration, resulting in more efficient and longer-lasting lead-free solar cells.
