The high efficiencies of metal halide perovskite solar cells have been associated with effective charge-carrier diffusion. Still, the characteristic nanograins and crystallographic disorder entailed in perovskite films hindered unraveling details of the vertical transport, calling for simultaneous experimental access to chemical composition, structural phase and ultrafast out-of-plane dynamics. Here, we promote depth-sensitive terahertz near-field nanospectroscopy to extreme subcycle time scales. In FA0.83Cs0.17Pb(I1−xClx)3 films, we discern domains of the α-phase from δ-phase and PbI2 nano-islands. Based on deep-subcycle time shifts of the scattered terahertz waveform after photoexcitation, we access the single-grain vertical diffusion. Despite topographic irregularities, diffusion is surprisingly homogeneous on sub-micrometer length scales, only varying between mesoscopic regions. Our approach linking nano-morphology with carrier dynamics may benefit all future optoelectronic devices using nanocrystalline materials.
