Abstract

Abstract : On page 7084, P. Müller‐Buschbaum and co‐workers report the fabrication of dye‐free hybrid solar cells based on hierarchically structured titania films and poly(3‐hexylthiophene) at low temperature. This type of cells has unique advantages with respect to low cost and energy efficiency. The hierarchical structures of titania are beneficial for enhancing light harvesting in the hybrid solar cells, thereby improving device performance.
