To improve device performance, a long sought‐after goal is to integrate highly ordered anisotropic nanostructured semiconducting materials within bulk‐heterojunction solar cells. In article number 1400585, Yueh‐Lin Loo and co‐workers report the synthesis and surface modification via tethering‐by‐aggregation‐and‐growth of vertically oriented ZnO nanowire arrays and their subsequent incorporation as electron acceptors in hybrid organic‐inorganic solar cells.
