Merocyanine based dyes are good model materials to investigate charge generation mechanisms in donor:acceptor blend systems. The power conversion efficiency of organic solar cells is a complex parameter, which usually strongly depends on microscopic processes involving for instance interfacial charge transfer states and the formation of long lived triplet states. Fundamental understanding of these effects is critical in order to design new high conversion efficiency solar cells. Here, we study these processes on their intrinsic timescale using time resolved VIS-NIR spectroscopy methods. We focus on the charge formation dynamics in solution processed merocyanine:PCBM blends as well as in merocyanine single crystals and extract quantitative information on the charge transfer dynamics between different excited species.
