synthesis method by redirecting the thermodynamically driven compositions. Moreover, we illustrate the importance of complementary characterization methods, obtaining atomic-scale structural information from multinuclear, multifield, and multidimensional solid-state magnetic resonance spectroscopy, as well
as from quantum chemical calculations and long-range structural details using powder X-ray diffraction. The solvent-free mechanochemical synthesis approach is also compared to traditional solvent synthesis, revealing identical solid-solution behavior; however, the mechanochemical approach offers
superior control over the stoichiometry of the final mixed-halide composition, which is essential for device engineering.

critical to obtaining optimum solar cell performance. Here, we report a solvent-free mechanochemical synthesis (MCS) method to prepare FA-MHPs, starting with their parent compounds (FAPbX3; X = Cl, Br, I), achieving compositions not previously accessible through the solvent synthesis (SS) technique. By
and Br/I MHPs. Our results pave the way for advanced methods in atomic-level structural understanding while offering a one-pot synthetic approach to prepare MHPs with superior control of stoichiometry.

further related to the measured chemical shift anisotropy present when Sn deviates from octahedral symmetry. We also discuss the rapid degradation of pristine MASnI3 over 2 days studied using in situ119Sn NMR spectroscopy. Finally, we report on the 1H, 13C, 119Sn, and 207Pb NMR structural properties of a
