High voltage : A selenium‐based photocathode has been developed for a photoelectrochemical solar cell with a high open‐circuit voltage V oc of 318 mV and an efficiency of 0.34 %. A higher V oc of 940 mV was realized in a tandem solar cell with a conventional N719 dye‐sensitized photoanode, giving an efficiency of 0.98 %.
