Multi-quantum phenomena such as exciton–exciton annihilation can be used to study exciton diffusion [1], which is a key process in optoelectronic devices like solar cells. Recently, our group has developed a method to isolate different multi-quantum signals using transient absorption (TA) spectroscopy. This novel method makes it possible to filter out the interaction of a distinct number of quasiparticles and their time evolution. Here, we use this method together with a new ultrafast laser setup that allows us to shape and detect femtosecond laser pulses at a repetition rate of 100 kHz. As a model system we investigate a thin Zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc) film on a surface-plasmon-supporting gold substrate. Strong coupling between ZnPc excitons and surface plasmons leads to the formation of plexcitons [2], and thus to a delocalization of charge carriers, which is of particular interest for increasing charge carrier mobilities. In this work we focus on the influence of the strong coupling on the quasiparticle diffusion.
