We determine the density of states (DOS) in disordered semiconductors via the diode ideality factor (nid). We employ illumination intensity and temperature-dependent open-circuit voltage measurements. In amorphous silicon, we found that nid only depends on the temperature, and can be explained by an exponential DOS distribution.
For the organic donor-acceptor solar cells, we find that nid is not only temperature but also light intensity-dependent. The seemingly unsystematic dependence of nid on the light intensity becomes systematic once the former is displayed in dependence of the open-circuit voltage, which is a means to sample the DOS distribution at a certain energetic depth. This evaluation approach leads to our central result: the DOS follows a power-law distribution over a broad range of energies. In particular, for the investigated organic solar cells under working conditions the DOS is best represented by the power-law, not a gaussian or exponential one.
