A possible approach to improve the efficiency of donor-acceptor based bulk heterojunction (BHJ) of OPV cells is the use of low band gap (LBG) polymers as donor materials. Basic electronic processes in OPV cells are however strongly influenced by the morphology and the ability for self-organization of the polymers in the thin-films. We utilize NEXAFS spectroscopy to study the molecular orientation of novel LBG polymers (PCPDTTBBTT, PCPDTTBTT and PCPDTzTBTT) for OPVs in thin films. The influence of post-processing annealing as well as of blending with Phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) on the orientation is investigated. The studied LBG polymers are characterized by a variation of (hexyl-) thiophene groups compared to related LBG polymers recently studied.[1,2].
