For photovoltaics, charge carrier lifetime is an essential parameter due to its influence on short circuit current, and thus on power conversion efficiency. In organic photovoltaics, for several material systems, charge carrier lifetime exceeds predictions from recombination models by orders of magnitude. In literature, this phenomenon is discussed in the context of reduced langevin recombination, for instance the high-efficiency bulk heterojunction polymer fullerene solar cell PTB7:PC₇₀BM, it is shown that recombination is also reduced. However, the physical processes responsible for these low recombination rates, such as mobility relaxation, energetic traps, and morphological traps, are hard to observe separately. Here, we present simultaneous transient absorption (TA) and transient microwave conductivity (TRMC) measurements on PTB7:PC₇₀BM films. From the experimental data we calculate time dependent mobility, since TA is sensitive to charge carrier density and TRMC is sensitive to conductivity. A relaxation of mobility on these time scales is measured the first time separately. Thus, we can distinguish mobility relaxation from other recombination influencing processes in PTB7:PC₇₀BM.
