Solar fuels and other value‐added chemicals derived from light‐driven reactions are highly desirable. Although advanced photoactive materials have been reported, demonstrations of their feasibility in large‐scale production are needed. Hence, strategies and recent efforts in scaling up photocatalytic reactors and integrating them into comprehensive ...

Transport Resistance Dominates the Fill Factor Losses in Record Organic Solar Cells
Organic photovoltaics are a promising solar cell technology, but even the record devices with 20% efficiency have significant fill factor losses due to low active layer conductivities. In this Perspective, the authors describe the origin of these losses, discuss experimental methods for their quantification, and explain how to minimize them to optimize

The Laws of Probability and the Law of the Land
Lawyers are wordsmiths, not number crunchers. Thus, quantitative or mathematical evidence has long been a source of bewilderment to the profession.' Some years ago, a lawyer-statistician team, Michael Finkelstein and William Fairley, suggested a modest use of an elementary formula of probability theory, known as Bayes's formula, to aid jurors in ...
