Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Bound for greatness:</bold> A sulfhydryl‐capped photoactive polymer is synthesized and covalently bound to the anode consisting of a thin layer of gold on ITO by using self‐assembly. A high power conversion efficiency is achieved for the device due to a reduction of the energy barrier between the anode and the active layer.<boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg3jxspww1" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
