The local magnetic anisotropy NaYF4:Yb/Er upconversion nanoparticles as a mesoporous electrode into organolead halide perovskite solar cells makes it possible to operate the cells in near‐infrared light. In their Communication on page 4280 ff., Z. Lin et al. show that the upconversion material broadens the solar spectral range used by the solar cell to near‐infrared light and minimizes the non‐absorption energy loss, thus leading to an enhanced photovoltaic performance.
