Has the Sun Set on Quantum Dot- Sensitized Solar Cells?

A reminder, a review and a look toward the future pros‐ pects 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 photosynthesi...
