A novel approach is reported for minimizing light conversion efficiency losses on n‐type silicon due to surface recombination and reflection of the incident light, using photoelectrochemical etching. Efficiency and stability of aqueous (concentrated ) photoelectrochemical cells can be improved by this process.
