We reveal the existence of dynamically stable nonlinear defect kink modes at an interface separating a defocusing Kerr medium and an imprinted semi-infinite lattice with a positive or negative defect covering single or several lattice sites. Increasing the number of defect sites equivalently results in a band-gap shift of lattice which in return alters the existence domains and stability properties of defect solitons. Comparing with the uniform semi-infinite lattice, the instability of kink soliton in lattice with a negative defect is significantly suppressed, especially for in-phase soliton. Our results provide an effective way for the realization of stable in-phase kink solitons.
