Abstract

Abstract : Nanoengineered materials and structures can harvest light efficiently for photovoltaic applications. Device structure design optimization and material property improvement are equally important for high performance. On page 2536, X. Mo, Z. Fan, and co‐workers summarize the design guidelines of solar energy harvesting devices to assist with a better understanding of device physics.
