The purity of the perovskite material is of paramount importance as it determines the optoelectronic properties and, hence, the device performance. However, the error during the experiment and incomplete crystallization is inevitable, leading to a low quality. Here, two p-type polymers were designed to template the crystallization of perovskite to obtain perovskite films with higher crystallinity and higher phase purity. The polymers at the perovskite/transport interface could also improve the charge transfer and, thus, the device performance. In this study, the highest efficiency device achieved an efficiency value of ~19% with improved open-circuit voltage and fill factor.
