Dye‐Sensitized Solar Cell Goes Solid
Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs), invented by Gratzel and O’Regan in 1991, offer the prospect of replacing conventional solid-state photovoltaic devices made with a signifi cant amount of the semiconductor material silicon. [ 1 , 2 ] DSCs have generated excitement because they consist mainly of nontoxic materials and offer a low-cost processing route (
