The power conversion efficiency of the formamidinium tin iodide (FASI) solar cells constantly increases, with the current record power conversion efficiency approaching 15%. The literature reports a broad anomaly distribution of the photoluminescence (PL) peak position. The PL anomaly is particularly relevant to photovoltaic applications since it directly links the material's bandgap and subgap defects energy, which are crucial to extracting its full photovoltaic potential. Herein, the PL of FASI polycrystalline thin film and powder is studied. It is found that a distribution of PL peak positions in line with the distribution available in the literature systematically. The distribution in PL is linked to the octahedral tilting and Sn off‐centering within the perovskite lattice, influenced by the procedure used to prepare the material. Our finding paves the way toward controlling the energy distribution of tin perovskite and thus preparing highly efficient tin halide perovskite solar cells.

A thin layer of Al2O3 nanoparticles has been deposited on top of a water-free PEDOT layer to modify wettability for obtaining pinhole-free homogenous tin-based perovskite films, resulting in better device performance.
