Pyrolysis of formamidinium halide salts (FAI, FABr) results in a new type of amorphous carbon nitride materials with a mass fraction of 40–50% nitrogen content. Pyrolysis temperature drives final chemical composition, morphology, optical and electrical properties of the material independently of the halide precursor and identi­fying triazine ring, instead of typical heptazine unit, as the main building block of this material. We elaborated a temperature dependent mechanism of formation for these materials and foresee its potential value as native passivation layer in the field of perovskite solar cells.
