The development of efficient and stable lead-free perovskite solar cells (PSCs) is the key to solve the problem of environmental pollution caused by toxic element lead. In recent years, tin-based PSCs have become popular candidates for high-performance, environmentally friendly photovoltaic technology with certified power conversion efficiency (PCE) of over 14%, which shows the great potential application. Herein, we briefly summarize the efficiency progress of tinbased PSCs and analyze some methods for improving its performance. We expect that these views will help accelerate the development of tin PSCs.
