Methylammonium iodide (MAI) has been widely used in the development of perovskite solar cells. MAI is typically used as a precursor material in the fabrication of perovskite thin films. It acts as a source of methylammonium cations (CH₃NH₃⁺) and iodide anions (I^-) that are necessary for the formation of the perovskite crystal structure. Methylammonium iodide, an organic halide based perovskite material, can be used in the fabrication of high performance organic solar cells. Organohalide based perovskites have emerged as an important class of material for solar cell applications. Our perovskites precursors with extremely low water contents are useful for synthesizing mixed cation or anion perovskites needed for the optimization of the band gap, carrier diffusion length and power conversion efficiency of perovskites based solar cells.
