Abstract

A reminder, a review and a look toward the future prospects for quantum dot-sensitized solar cells - a reminder of the highly viable, energy-efficient solar cells achievable; a review of ground-breaking devices and their similarities to the near unity photon-to-electron mechanisms of photosynthesis; a look toward architectures that capitalize on the advances observed in previous work.
