On page 8937, Y. Yang, X.‐F. Yu, and co‐workers demonstrate the successful fabrication of a wideband bifacial dye‐sensitized‐solar‐cell using black phosphorus quantum dots in the photocathode. Due to the fast carrier transfer and complementary light absorption of black phosphorus, the cell delivers 20% enhancement in light‐to‐electron efficiency, demonstrating potential to use the solution‐processable black phosphorus in photovoltaic devices.
