A solar cell device under sunlight irradiation is shown by Y.‐J. Cheng and co‐workers. The device contains a photoactive layer which can efficiently absorb the light. There are three components in the active layer: the green flying ribbons represent the p‐type poly3‐hexylthiopehene polymers, while the blue shining balls represent the n‐type PC61BM, and the red balls are the other PCBM‐based fullerene material, functionalized with pentafluorophenyl groups. The device is described in detail on page 1418.
