Description
Summary:The combined optical management of an optical cavity and a photonic crystal, reported by Jordi Martorell and co‐workers in article number 1400614, enhances the performance of semitransparent organic solar cells to achieve power conversion efficiencies comparable to the ones seen in the corresponding opaque cells. This result makes it possible to create window‐integrated photovoltaic solutions without compromising power conversion.
