Structure and morphology in tetracene-C60 blends — •Katja Schick, Clemens Zeiser, and Katharina Broch — Institut für Angewandte Physik, Universität Tübingen, Deutschland

Although C60 is one of the classical acceptors in organic solar cells [1], the mechanisms of its structure formation in blends are not fully understood. However, since the mixing behaviour or the length scales of phase separation are affecting device performance [2], an understanding of the underlying mechanisms is important. Phase separating systems can exhibit interesting kinetic effects as demonstrated, e.g. in blends of C60 and diindenoperylene (DIP), for which a thickness-dependent domain size has been observed [3].

In order to study how the length of the co-evaporated molecule influences the thickness-dependent phase separation and island size, we use tetracene (TET) which is shorter than DIP. To analyse the thickness-dependent structure and morphology of the TET:C60 films we use X-ray diffraction, AFM and SEM and discuss our findings in view of the steric compatibility of the two molecules.
