This artwork is the result of a collaborative effort in art and science between artist, Dr. Patti Pente, and scientist, Brian Worfolk. Inspired by discussions around the nature of visualizing data, Dr. Pente combined drawing with photographic and schematic images from the air‐stable photovoltaic research described by J. M. Buriak and co‐workers on page 361 . The importance of a sense of scale, which is a key component in communicating nanotechnology to the public, is emphasized. The energy of the sun is imagined as both entering and (later) exiting the photovoltaic chip.
