Due to their large chemical variety photoactive conducting polymers are of great interest for versatile applications such as organic photovoltaics. In order to improve the device characteristics not only the polymer film but also the rest of the device has to be optimized regarding light absorption and charge carrier separation. Therefore the focus of this work is put on the use of structured substrates in order to improve the light absorption and the overall device performance. A new route based on solution casting is introduced to structure the electron blocking PEDOT:PSS layer. Absorption spectra of polymer blend films spincoated on such structured substrates show promising aspects for their suitability for organic photovolatics. In addition the inner film morphology of a polymer blend based on M3EH-PPV and F8BT spincoated on structured channel-like substrates is investigated using GISAXS measurements. The obtained results show a dependence of the film morphology and the topographic shape on the etched depth of the channels. The study is complemented with atomic force and scanning electron microscopy measurements.
