A CdS/CdSe composite shell is assembled onto the surface of ZnO nanowire arrays with a simple spin‐coating‐based successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction method (see picture). The as‐prepared photoelectrode exhibit a high photocurrent density in photoelectrochemical cells and also generates good power conversion efficiency in quantum‐dot‐sensitized solar cells.
