    CH<inf>3</inf>NH<inf>3</inf>PbI<inf>3</inf> (MAPbI<inf>3</inf>) film was prepared by a convective method, and its X-ray diffraction spectrum displays the tetragonal perovskite structure. GeI<inf>2</inf> and GeBr<inf>2</inf> powders dissolve poorly in a mixed dimethylformamide-dimethylsulfoxide (DMF-DMSO) solvent, but the introduction of 5 wt% 5-ammonium valeric acid iodide (5-AVAI) into the mixed DMF-DMSO solvent greatly promotes GeI<inf>2</inf> and GeBr<inf>2</inf> solubility. XRD spectra of the (5-AVAI)MAPbI<inf>3</inf>, MAGe<inf>x</inf>Pb<inf>1–x</inf>I<inf>3</inf>, and MAGe<inf>x</inf>Pb<inf>1–x</inf>Br<inf>2x</inf>I<inf>3–2x</inf> (x = 0.0625 and 0.125) films exhibit a tetragonal perovskite structure, but the film morphologies become rougher than that of the pristine MAPbI<inf>3</inf> film. Discontinuous islands are formed on MAGe<inf>x</inf>Pb<inf>1–x</inf>I<inf>3</inf> and MAGe<inf>x</inf>Pb<inf>1–x</inf>Br<inf>2x</inf>I<inf>3–2x</inf> (x = 0.125) films. X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) analysis detected the Ge element on all Ge-doped films. The best performance levels of the carbon-based hole transport layer-free MAGe<inf>x</inf>Pb<inf>1–x</inf>I<inf>3–x</inf> (x = 0.0625, η= 3.63%) and MAGe<inf>x</inf>Pb<inf>1–x</inf>Br<inf>2x</inf>I<inf>3–2x</inf> (x = 0.0625, η = 2.95%) perovskite solar cells are lower than that of the pristine MAPbI<inf>3</inf>–based perovskite solar cell (η = 5.28%). This is likely due to the increased surface roughness, pin-holes, isolated islands, and the decreased light absorbance of the Ge-doped films in comparison with the pristine MAPbI<inf>3</inf> film.
