The most highly charged water‐soluble poly‐ ortho ‐substituted tetraarylporphycene (Pc 8+ ) has been synthetized. The latter, which interacts in aqueous solutions with graphene oxide (GO) forming a photoactive ensemble Pc 8+ /GO, is immobilized by means of the Layer‐by‐Layer (LbL) technique onto ITO electrodes to afford novel solar energy conversion devices.
