In article number 1400414, Jong Hak Kim and co‐workers present a facile process to produce large‐area platinum (Pt) counter electrode platforms with well‐arrayed, mesh‐shaped nanopatterns. The resulting solid‐state dye‐sensitized solar cells have 7.0% efficiency, which is much higher than the efficiencies of non‐patterned cells (5.4–5.7%) due to enhanced light harvesting and a greater surface area.
