Abstract The passivation of detrimental perovskite‐based defects is critically acknowledged for fabricating highly effective perovskite solar cells (PSCs). The presence of a high‐quality electron transport layer (ETL) is also considered a pivotal factor for effective charge extraction and transport dynamics. Herein, a simple small organic molecule, aminomethyl phosphonic acid (AMPA), is introduced as a multifunctional additive in the SnO 2 ETL. The defects in the SnO 2 ETL are effectively suppressed by passivating the oxygen vacancies upon the SnO 2 surface. Simultaneously, the carrier mobility and crystallinity of SnO 2 are enhanced, and the upward‐regulated conduction band minimum (CBM) is beneficial for constructing a favorable energy level alignment with the perovskite layer. Notably, the introduced residuals on the SnO 2 surface can function as crystalline seeds for growth of large perovskite grains, which can passivate the defects in the perovskite bulk phase, boundaries, as well as the SnO 2 /perovskite interface. Consequently, the power conversion efficiency ( PCE ) value of the AMPA‐modified PSCs is enhanced from 19.91% to 24.22%. Most importantly, the unencapsulated PSCs with AMPA maintained 94.9% of the initial PCE during 720 h of storage at a relative humidity of 10%, attributed to the improved hydrophobicity of both the SnO 2 and perovskite layers after AMPA modification.
