A self‐organized hole extraction layer (SOHEL) with high work function (WF) is designed for energy level alignment with the ionization potential level of CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 . The SOHEL increases the built‐in potential, photocurrent, and power conversion efficiency (PCE) of CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 perovskite solar cells. Thus, interface engineering of the positive electrode of solution‐processed planar heterojunction solar cells using a high‐WF SOHEL is a very effective way to achieve high device efficiency (PCE = 11.7% on glass).
