Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites are attracting significant attention due to their numerous advantages such as superior optical/electrical properties and solution processability. However, the efficiency of perovskite solar cells and device stability are still limited by the defects which originate from the inevitable formation of perovskite grain boundary and the sensitive dependency of perovskite grain growth. To solve these issues, here we present a simple, efficient polymer-permeating grain boundary (PPGB) method that hydrophobic hole transport materials (HTM) are introduced into the perovskite grain boundary down to the bottom after fabricating dense, single-like perovskite grain. This approach of filled perovskite grain boundary from HTM leads to defect passivation and enhancement of hole extraction with improved highly solar cell efficiency and stability. It was achieved that the modified device has decreasing leakage current, 3.8 times enhancement of hole mobility, as well as reduced trap state density comparing pristine device. Consequently, modified perovskite solar cell performance are significantly enhanced from 16.5 % to 18.6 % with the short circuit current density of 23.2 mA cm-2, the open-circuit voltage of 0.99 V, fill factor of 0.81 and the stability also increases under the ambient environment due to covering perovskite grain from hydrophobic HTM.
