Low-bandgap mixed tin (Sn)–lead (Pb) perovskite solar cells have been extensively investigated in the past few years due to their great potential in high-performance perovskite/perovskite tandem solar cells. From this perspective, we briefly summarize the mechanism of understanding of additives and the advances in the efficiency and stability of such low-bandgap Sn-Pb perovskite materials and solar cells in terms of various effective strategies for suppressing the defects and oxidation of Sn2+, regulating crystallization growth, etc. We then provide a perspective regarding the achievement of high-quality, low-bandgap Sn-Pb perovskites and highly efficient solar cells.
