Orientation and order at different length scales are believed to play a crucial role for the performance of organic semiconductor devices. Taking advantage of the material properties of bottlebrush copolymers and gain control of structure formation, a poly-(3-hexylthiophene) grafted copolymer has been studied [1]. In order to investigate the structure on the molecular scale the technique of Infrared Transition Moment Orientational Analysis (IR-TMOA) has been employed [2,3]. The absorbance of structure-related bands is evaluated depending on the inclination of the sample film (ϑ) and polarization of the IR light (ϕ). This combination then allows to determine the tensor of absorption separately for the respective molecular moieties and to deduce their orientation (Θ,Φ) relative to a sample-fixed coordinate system. In addition transient absorption measurements have been conducted. The dynamics of exciton and polaron formation and decay has been investigated and the derived results on the basis of the bottlebrush copolymer are compared with results from linear P3HT.
