Currently, the highest-performing lead-free perovskite solar cells utilize element tin. Tin halide perovskites, typically FASnI3, resemble their lead-based counterparts in optoelectronic properties but possess dissimilar crystallization kinetics. To tackle usually poor film quality, we introduced trimethylthiourea (3T) to spin coating of FASnI3 films. This bifunctional ligand greatly improved morphology and texture films by spreading joining individual crystal grains. Accordingly, charge-carrier lifetime 3T-treated reached a record high 123 ns, open-circuit voltage at 0.92 V was only 0.2 short theoretical limit, both approaching those lead perovskites. The certified power conversion efficiency 14.0% stability against humid air are also among best for cells. Possible reasons efficacy 3T through H-bonding discussed. These findings emphasize deposition control tin perovskites give direction future developments.
