Graphitic carbon nitride (g‐C 3 N 4 ) is applied in bulk heterojunction polymer solar cells for the first time by doping g‐C 3 N 4 quantum dots (QDs) in the P3HT:PC 61 BM, PBDTTT‐C:PC 71 BM, or PTB7‐Th:PC 71 BM active layer. This results in obvious efficiency enhancement, as S. F. Yang and co‐workers show on page 1719. Thus, the novel application of g‐C 3 N 4 in energy conversion beyond the commonly used photocatalysts is demonstrated.
