Charge Transfer Exciton Dynamics in Polymer/Fullerene Blend — •Josef M. Berger, Markus Hallermann, Enrico Da Como, and Jochen Feldmann — Lehrstuhl für Photonik und Optoelektronik, CeNS, LMU München
Polymer fullerene blends are one of the most promising material systems for organic photovoltaics. A major loss channel in these cells is the formation and recombination of charge transfer excitons. These excitons emit light as a consequence of radiative recombination of the hole on the polymer and the electron on the fullerene [1]. Here, we report on time resolved emission experiments with the aim of understanding the parameters controlling the recombination lifetime. For the blend of MDMO-PPV/PCBM we correlate the decay profile with the morphology obtained by transmission electron microscopy [2]. [1] Markus Hallermann, Stephan Haneder, and Enrico Da Como, Appl.
