Colloidal quantum dots (QDs) are widely studied due to their promising optoelectronic properties. This study explores the application of specially designed and synthesized “giant” core/shell CdSe/(CdS)_x QDs with variable CdS shell thickness, while keeping the core size at 1.65 nm, as a highly efficient and stable light harvester for QD sensitized solar cells (QDSCs). The comparative study demonstrates that the photovoltaic performance of QDSCs can be significantly enhanced by optimizing the CdS shell thickness. The highest photoconversion efficiency (PCE) of 3.01% is obtained at optimum CdS shell thickness ≈1.96 nm. To further improve the PCE and fully highlight the effect of core/shell QDs interface engineering, a CdSe_xS_1−x interfacial alloyed layer is introduced between CdSe core and CdS shell. The resulting alloyed CdSe/(CdSe_xS_1−x)₅/(CdS)₁ core/shell QD‐based QDSCs yield a maximum PCE of 6.86%, thanks to favorable stepwise electronic band alignment and improved electron transfer rate with the incorporation of CdSe_xS_1−x interfacial layer with respect to CdSe/(CdS)₆ core/shell. In addition, QDSCs based on “giant” core/CdS‐shell or alloyed core/shell QDs exhibit excellent long‐term stability with respect to bare CdSe‐based QDSCs. The giant core/shell QDs interface engineering methodology offers a new path to improve PCE and the long‐term stability of liquid junction QDSCs.
