Transient and spectral photovoltage phenomena are investigated in poly-(p-phenylenevinylene). The photovoltage transients are excited with short laser pulses and are retarded strongly in time. The retardation of the photovoltage transients depends on the sample thickness, laser intensity and bias illumination. The photovoltage signal is caused by separation of excess electrons and holes due to their concentration gradient and different diffusion coefficients (diffusion photovoltage). A numerical analysis yields a diffusion coefficient of excess holes on the order of 10-6 cm2/Vs, while the value for excess electrons is about 1-2 orders of magnitude lower, which is in good agreement with previous studies of charge carrier mobilities in PPV.
