The perovskite solar cells (PSCs) and organic solar cells (OSCs) with high performance were fabricated with transfer-printed top metal electrodes. We have demonstrated that PSCs and OSCs with the top Au electrodes fabricated by using the transfer printing method have comparable or better performance than the devices with the top Au electrodes fabricated by using the conventional thermal evaporation method. The highest PCE of the PSCs and OSCs with the top electrodes fabricated using the transfer printing method achieved 13.72% and 2.35%, respectively. It has been investigated that fewer defects between the organic thin films and Au electrodes exist by using the transfer printing method which improved the device stability. After storing the PSCs and OSCs with the transfer-printed electrodes in a nitrogen environment for 97 and 103 days without encapsulation, the PSCs and OSCs still retained 71% and 91% of their original PCEs, respectively.
