However, a large-scale application of perovskite solar cells needs to solve issues of the chemical instability of organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites, as well as the toxicity of lead (Pb) contaminants. In this presentation, we discussed the lead less perovskite, especially the Sn\/Pb binary metal inorganic perovskite, for efficient and stable photovoltaic application. For example, we will discuss an effective method for stabilizing CsPb<sub>0.5<\/sub>Sn<sub>0.5<\/sub>I<sub>2<\/sub>Br via antioxidant tea polyphenol. We experimentally found tea polyphenol can not only slow down the oxidation of Sn<sup>2+<\/sup>, but also regulate perovskite film crystallization during the formation of perovskite film via coordination interaction, leading to a reduced density of defects and an enlarged open-circuit voltage. Furthermore, we will discuss a chemical doping agent of cobaltocene (denoted CoCp<sub>2<\/sub>) with strong electron-donating ability for the first time as stabilizer and electrical property manipulator to inorganic CsSnI<sub>3<\/sub> perovskite compound for photovoltaic application. Such a thermal-driven electron injection from CoCp<sub>2<\/sub> into CsSnI<sub>3<\/sub> maintains a reducing environment and thereby effectively suppresses the Sn2+ oxidation (named after remote reduction), which can be confirmed by an increase in the density of states near the Fermi level and an emerging of oxidized species cobaltocenium (CoCp<sup>2+<\/sup>). Incorporating donor elements offers a novel and viable strategy to develop stable Sn-based inorganic PSCs with attractive properties for practical applications.<\/p>\n<p><b>Co-authors<\/b><br \/>\nMingkui Wang<sup>a,b,*<\/sup>, Tao Zhang<sup>b<\/sup>, Huaxia Ban<sup>b<\/sup>, Qiang Sun<sup>b<\/sup>, Zhiguo Zhang<sup>b<\/sup><br \/>\n(a) China-EU Institute for Clean and Renewable Energy, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Luoyu Road 1037, Wuhan 430074, P.
