Solution processed small molecules (SSM) are promising materials for solar cell (SC) applications due to their well defined structure and high chemical reproducibility. Donor-acceptor-donor layout of SSM provides enhanced exciton splitting, as well as good possibility for effective charge transfer. The blend morphology in a bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) SC is assumed to play a crucial role in the cell performance. Therefore, we set to find optimal BHJ fabrication method keeping track of corresponding transport properties. In this work we studied DTS(EtHex)₂-(2T-DCV-Me)₂:PC₆₀BM BHJ SC using the photogenerated charge carrier extraction technique OTRACE in order to analyze non-geminate recombination and determine charge carrier mobility in context of varying blend morphology. We show that different preparation conditions have a strong impact on the blend morphology and thus on the charge carrier transport (i.e. mobility and recombination rate). Furthermore, introduced modifications allowed to achieve a 4-fold enhancement of SC efficiency up to 4.3%.
