The image shows a thin‐film solar cell, deposited from a hybrid solution‐nanoparticle ink, with a background scanning electron microscopy (SEM) image of the zinc‐compound particle component of the ink. A cross‐sectional SEM image of the device shows the large‐grained kesterite absorber layer composed of readily available elements: Cu‐Zn‐Sn‐S‐Se. The solution‐processed devices offer record power conversion efficiency for kesterite absorber layers, as presented by D. B. Mitzi et al. on page E156 .
