In the composition of Q0.1(FA0.75MA0.25)0.9SnI3, Q is replaced with Na+, K+, Cs+, ethylammonium+ (EA+), and butylammonium+ (BA+), respectively, and the relationship between actually measured lattice strain and photovoltaic performances is discussed. The lattice strain evaluated by the Williamson-hall plot of
