Abstract
The organic−inorganic hybrid [CH3(CH2)11NH3]SnI3 presents a lamellar structure with a Sn−I framework isotypic to that of MoO3. The SnI3- layer consists of edge and corner-sharing SnI6 octahedra in which one of the six Sn−I bonds is distinctly elongated (e.g., 3.62 Å), indicating lone-pair stereoactivity for the Sn(II) atom. The overall electronic character remains comparable with that of the well-studied SnI42--based perovskite semiconductors, such as [CH3(CH2)11NH3]2SnI4, with a red-shifted and broadened exciton peak associated with the band gap, apparently due to the increased dimensionality of the Sn−I framework. The title compound offers, aside from the hybrid perovskites, a new type of solution-processable Sn−I network for potential applications in semiconductive devices.Keywords
