Significant progress has been made in the photovoltaic energy conversion using organic semiconducting materials. One of the focuses of attention is the morphology of the donor-acceptor heterojunction at the nanometer scale, to ensure efficient charge generation and loss-free charge transport at the same time. Here, we present a method for the controlled, sequential design of a bilayer polymer cell architecture that consists of a large interface area. We used surface-directed demixing of a donor conjugated/guest polymer blend during spincoating to produce a nanostructured interface, which can, after removal of the guest polymer with a selective solvent, be covered with an acceptor layer. Our experimental results indicate that length-scales of interface topographical features can be adjusted from the nanometer to micrometer range.
