In article number 1301804, Jeremy N. Munday and co‐workers describe the use of a plant‐based cellulose fiber paper as advanced antireflection coatings for solar cells. These coatings provide broadband, angle‐independent optical response using a simple and inexpensive fabrication process. Additionally, these cellulose materials are lightweight, flexible, and recyclable, making them highly attractive materials for environmentally friendly production.
