Systems composed of semiconducting polymers and low work function metals - used as the cathode - are of great interest in the field of organic electronics, e.g., organic solar cells and organic light emitting diodes. The key parameter in the performance of such devices is the interface between the active polymer and the electrode. We investigated the deposition of calcium on several semiconducting polymers, including CN-MEH-PPV and P3HT, using a set of complementary experimental techniques (ISS, HR-XPS, adsorption microcalorimetry). The focus of this study is on the different adsorption or reaction sites for Ca on the polymer surface and the energetics of the interface formation. The considerable differences in the behavior of the polymers are linked to the presence of different heteroatoms. Support by the DAAD, the NSF, and the Excellence Cluster "Engineering of Advanced Materials" at the University of Erlangen-Nürnberg is gratefully acknowledged.
