The temperature dependence of field‐effect transistor (FET) mobility is analyzed for a series of n‐channel, p‐channel, and ambipolar organic semiconductor‐based FETs selected for varied semiconductor structural and device characteristics. The materials (and dominant carrier type) studied are 5,5′′′‐bis(perfluorophenacyl)‐2,2′:5′,2″:5″,2′′′‐quaterthiophene ( 1 , n‐channel), 5,5′′′‐bis(perfluorohexyl carbonyl)‐2,2′:5′,2″:5″,2′′′‐quaterthiophene ( 2 , n‐channel), pentacene ( 3 , p‐channel); 5,5′′′‐bis(hexylcarbonyl)‐2,2′:5′,2″:5″,2′′′‐quaterthiophene ( 4 , ambipolar), 5,5′′′‐bis‐(phenacyl)‐2,2′: 5′,2″:5″,2′′′‐quaterthiophene ( 5 , p‐channel), 2,7‐bis((5‐perfluorophenacyl)thiophen‐2‐yl)‐9,10‐phenanthrenequinone ( 6 , n‐channel), and poly(N‐(2‐octyldodecyl)‐2,2′‐bithiophene‐3,3′‐dicarboximide) ( 7 , n‐channel). Fits of the effective field‐effect mobility (µeff) data assuming a discrete trap energy within a multiple trapping and release (MTR) model reveal low activation energies (EAs) for high‐mobility semiconductors 1 – 3 of 21, 22, and 30 meV, respectively. Higher EA values of 40–70 meV are exhibited by 4 – 7 ‐derived FETs having lower mobilities (µeff). Analysis of these data reveals little correlation between the conduction state energy level and EA, while there is an inverse relationship between EA and µeff. The first variable‐temperature study of an ambipolar organic FET reveals that although n‐channel behavior exhibits EA = 27 meV, the p‐channel regime exhibits significantly more trapping with EA = 250 meV. Interestingly, calculated free carrier mobilities (µ0) are in the range of ~0.2–0.8 cm2 V?1 s?1 in this materials set, largely independent of µeff. This indicates that in the absence of charge traps, the inherent magnitude of carrier mobility is comparable for each of these materials. Finally, the effect of temperature on threshold voltage (VT) reveals two distinct trapping regimes, with the change in trapped charge exhibiting a striking correlation with room temperature µeff. The observation that EA is independent of conduction state energy, and that changes in trapped charge with temperature correlate with room temperature µeff, support the applicability of trap‐limited mobility models such as a MTR mechanism to this materials set. 相似文献

The correlation between morphology and charge‐carrier mobility in the vertical direction in thin films of poly(2‐methoxy‐5‐(2′‐ethylhexyloxy)‐1,4‐phenylenevinylene) (MEH‐PPV) is investigated by a combination of X‐ray reflectivity (XRR), field‐emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), fluorescence optical microscopy (FOM), photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL), photoluminescence excitation spectroscopy (PLE), as well as time‐of‐flight (TOF) and transient electroluminescence (TrEL) techniques. The mobility is about two orders of magnitude greater for drop‐cast films than for their spin‐cast counterparts. Drop‐casting in the presence of a vertical static electric field (E‐casting) results in films with an additional increase in mobility of about one order of magnitude. While PL and PLE spectra vary with the method of film preparation, there is no correlation between emission spectra and charge‐carrier mobility. Our XRR measurements on spin‐cast films indicate layering along the film depth while no such structure is found in drop‐cast or E‐cast films, whereas FESEM examination indicates that nanodomains within drop‐cast films are eliminated in the E‐cast case. These observations indicate that carrier transport is influenced by structure on two different length scales. The low mobility observed in spin‐cast films is a direct result of a global layered structure with characteristic thickness of ca. 4 nm: in the absence of this layered structure, drop‐cast films with inherent nanoscale heterogeneities (ca. 20 nm in size) exhibit much better hole mobility. Elimination of nanodomains via electric‐field alignment results in further improved charge mobility. 相似文献

The charge‐transport properties of the spiro‐linked compounds 2,2′,7,7′‐tetrakis(diphenylamino)‐9,9′‐spirobifluorene, 2,2′,7,7′‐tetrakis(N,N′‐di‐p‐methylphenylamino)‐9,9′‐spirobifluorene, 2,2′,7,7′‐tetra(m‐tolyl‐phenylamino)‐9,9′‐spirobifluorene, and 2,2′,7,7′‐tetra(N‐phenyl‐1‐naphthylamine)‐9,9′‐spirobifluorene, and their corresponding parent compounds, N,N,N′,N′‐tetraphenylbenzidine, N,N,N′,N′‐tetrakis(4‐methylphenyl)benzidine, and N,N′‐bis(3‐methylphenyl)‐(1,1′‐biphenyl)‐4,4′‐diamine, N,N′‐diphenyl‐N,N′‐bis(1‐naphthyl)‐1,1′‐biphenyl‐4,4′‐diamine, are investigated. The field‐effect mobilities of charge carriers in thin films of the parent compounds are slightly higher than those of the spiro‐linked compounds. However, the transistor action of the parent‐compound thin films vanishes because the films crystallize after being stored in ambient atmosphere for a few days. In contrast, the hole mobilities in thin films of the spiro‐linked compounds do not change significantly after the samples are stored in ambient atmosphere for up to nine months. Also discussed is the temperature dependency of the mobilities of charge carriers, which is presented using two models, namely the Arrhenius and the Gaussian disorder models. 相似文献

The molecular orientation of linear‐shaped molecules in organic amorphous films is demonstrated to be controllable by the substrate temperature. It is also shown that the molecular orientation affects the charge‐transport characteristics of the films. Although linear‐shaped 4,4′‐bis[(N‐carbazole)styryl]biphenyl molecules deposited on substrates at room temperature are horizontally oriented in amorphous films, their orientation when deposited on heated substrates with smooth surfaces becomes more random as the substrate temperature increases, even at temperatures under the glass transition temperature. Another factor dominating the orientation of the molecules deposited on heated substrates is the surface roughness of the substrate. Lower carrier mobilities are observed in films composed of randomly oriented molecules, demonstrating the significant effect of a horizontal molecular orientation on the charge‐transport characteristics of organic amorphous films. 相似文献

A study of the photo‐oxidation of films of poly[2‐methoxy‐5‐(3′,7′‐dimethyloctyloxy)‐1,4‐phenylene vinylene] (MDMO‐PPV) blended with [6,6]‐phenyl C61‐butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM), and solar cells based thereon, is presented. Solar‐cell performance is degraded primarily through loss in short‐circuit current density, JSC. The effect of the same photodegradation treatment on the optical‐absorption, charge‐recombination, and charge‐transport properties of the active layer is studied. It is concluded that the loss in JSC is primarily due to a reduction in charge‐carrier mobility, owing to the creation of more deep traps in the polymer during photo‐oxidation. Recombination is slowed down by the degradation and cannot therefore explain the loss in photocurrent. Optical absorption is reduced by photo‐bleaching, but the size of this effect alone is insufficient to explain the loss in device photocurrent. 相似文献

Evidence is presented for the formation of a weak ground‐state charge‐transfer complex in the blend films of poly[9,9‐dioctylfluorene‐co‐N‐(4‐methoxyphenyl)diphenylamine] polymer (TFMO) and [6,6]‐phenyl‐C61 butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM), using photothermal deflection spectroscopy (PDS) and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. Comparison of this polymer blend with other polyfluorene polymer/PCBM blends shows that the appearance of this ground‐state charge‐transfer complex is correlated to the ionization potential of the polymer, but not to the optical gap of the polymer or the surface morphology of the blend film. Moreover, the polymer/PCBM blend films in which this charge‐transfer complex is observed also exhibit efficient photocurrent generation in photovoltaic devices, suggesting that the charge‐transfer complex may be involved in charge separation. Possible mechanisms for this charge‐transfer state formation are discussed as well as the significance of this finding to the understanding and optimization of polymer blend solar cells. 相似文献

The syntheses of new fluorene‐based π‐conjugated copolymers; namely, poly((5,5″‐(3′,4′‐dihexyl‐2,2′;5′,2″‐terthiophene 1′,1′‐dioxide))‐alt‐2,7‐(9,9‐dihexylfluorene)) (PFTORT), poly((5,5″″‐(3″,4″‐dihexyl‐2,2′:5′,2′:5″,2‴:5‴,2″″‐quinquethiophene 1″,1″‐dioxide))‐alt‐2,7‐(9,9‐dihexylfluorene)) (PFTTORTT), and poly((5,5‐E‐α‐(2‐thienyl)methylene)‐2‐thiopheneacetonitrile)‐alt‐2,7‐(9,9‐dihexylfluorene)) (PFTCNVT), are reported. In the solid state, PFTORT and PFTCNVT present red–orange emission (with a maximum at 610 nm) while PFTTORTT shows a red emission with a maximum at 666 nm. In all cases, electrochemical measurements have revealed p‐ and n‐dopable copolymers. All these copolymers have been successfully tested in simple light‐emitting diodes and show promising results for orange‐ and red‐light‐emitting devices. 相似文献

Two anthracene‐based star‐shaped conjugated small molecules, 5′,5″‐(9,10‐bis((4‐hexylphenyl)ethynyl)anthracene‐2,6‐diyl)bis(5‐hexyl‐2,2′‐bithiophene), HBantHBT, and 5′,5″‐(9,10‐bis(phenylethynyl)anthracene‐2,6‐diyl)bis(5‐hexyl‐2,2′‐bithiophene), BantHBT, are used as electron‐cascade donor materials by incorporating them into organic photovoltaic cells prepared using a poly((5,5‐E‐alpha‐((2‐thienyl)methylene)‐2‐thiopheneacetonitrile)‐alt‐2,6‐[(1,5‐didecyloxy)naphthalene])) (PBTADN):[6,6]‐phenyl‐C71‐butyric acid methyl ester (PC71BM) blend. The small molecules penetrate the PBTADN:PC71BM blend layer to yield complementary absorption spectra through appropriate energy level alignment and optimal domain sizes for charge carrier transfer. A high short‐circuit current (JSC) and fill factor (FF) are obtained using solar cells prepared with the ternary blend. The highest photovoltaic performance of the PBTADN: BantHBT :PC71BM blend solar cells is characterized by a JSC of 11.0 mA cm?2, an open circuit voltage (VOC) of 0.91 V, a FF of 56.4%, and a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 5.6% under AM1.5G illumination (with a high intensity of 100 mW?2). The effects of the small molecules on the ternary blend are investigated by comparison with the traditional poly(3‐hexylthiophene) (P3HT):[6,6]‐phenyl‐C61‐butyric acid methyl ester (PC61BM) system. 相似文献

An organic compound with two triphenylamine moieties linked with binaphthyl at the 3,3′‐positions (2,2′‐dimethoxyl‐3,3′‐ di(phenyl‐4‐yl‐diphenyl‐amine)‐[1,1′]‐binaphthyl, TPA–BN–TPA) can be synthesized by Suzuki coupling. Amorphous and homogeneous films are obtained by either vacuum deposition or spin‐coating from solution in good solvents, while single crystals are grown in an appropriate polar solvent. X‐ray crystallography showed that a TPA–BN–TPA crystal is a multichannel structure containing solvent molecules in the channels. The intramolecular charge‐transfer state resulting from amino conjugation effects is observed by solvatochromic experiments. The high glass‐transition temperature (130 °C) and decomposition temperature (439 °C) of this material, in combination with its reversible oxidation property, make it a promising candidate as a hole‐transport material for light‐emitting diodes. With TPA–BN–TPA as the hole‐transporting layer in an indium tin oxide/TPA–BN–TPA/aluminum tris(8‐hydroxyquinoline)/Mg:Ag device, a brightness of about 10 100 cd m–2 at 15.6 V with a maximum efficiency of 3.85 cd A–1 is achieved, which is superior to a device with N,N′‐di(1‐naphthyl)‐N,N′‐diphenyl‐[1,1′‐biphenyl]‐4,4′‐diamine as the hole‐transporting layer under the same conditions. Other devices with TPA–BN–TPA as the blue‐light‐emitting layer or host for a blue dye emitter are also studied. 相似文献

This contribution presents an electrochemical, Raman spectroscopic, and theoretical study probing the differences in molecular and electronic structure of two quinoidal oligothiophenes (3′,4′‐dibutyl‐5,5″‐bis(dicyanomethylene)‐5,5″‐dihydro‐2,2′:5′,2″‐terthiophene and 5,5′‐bis(dicyanomethylene)‐3‐hexyl‐2,5‐dihydro‐4,4′‐dihexyl‐2,2′,5,5′‐tetrahydro‐tetrathiophene) with terminal tetracyanomethylene functionalization and aromatic oligothiophenes where acceptor moieties are positioned at lateral positions along the conjugated chain (6,6′‐dibutylsulfanyl‐[2,2′‐bi‐[4‐dicyanovinylene‐4H‐cyclopenta[2,1‐b:3,4‐b′]dithiophene]). In this way, the consequences of linear and cross conjugation are compared and contrasted. From this analysis, it is apparent that organic field‐effect transistors fabricated with cross‐conjugated tetrathiophene semiconductors should combine the benefits of an electron‐donor aromatic chain with strongly electron‐accepting tetracyanomethylene substituents. The corresponding organic field‐effect transistors exhibit ambipolar transport with rather similar hole and electron mobilities. Moreover, n‐channel conduction is enhanced to yield one of the highest electron mobilities found to date for this type of material. 相似文献

An improved synthetic approach was developed for the synthesis of 1,4‐bis[9′,9′‐bis(6″‐(N,N,N‐trimethylammonium)‐hexyl)‐fluoren‐2′‐yl]benzene tetrabromide ( 1a ), 1,4‐bis[9′,9′;9″,9″‐tetra(6″′‐(N,N,N‐trimethylammonium)‐hexyl)‐7′,2″‐bisfluoren‐2′‐yl] benzene octabromide ( 1b ) and 1,4‐bis[9′,9′;9″,9″;9″′,9″′‐hexakis(6″″‐(N,N,N‐trimethylammonium)‐hexyl)‐7′,2″,7″,2″′‐trifluoren‐2′‐yl] benzene dodecabromide ( 1c ). These molecules provide a size‐specific series of water‐soluble oligofluorene molecules with increasing numbers of repeat units to model the interactions between cationic conjugated polymers and DNA. Fluorescence quenching and energy‐transfer measurements were performed with 1a – c and single‐stranded (ss) DNA and double‐stranded (ds) DNA, with and without fluorescein (Fl). These studies show that, on a per‐negative‐charge basis, ssDNA quenches the emission of 1a – c more effectively than dsDNA. Furthermore, we show that the energy‐transfer ratios dsDNA–Fl/ssDNA–Fl are dependent on the number of repeat units in 1a – c . 相似文献

Lead sulfide (PbS) and cadmium sulfide (CdS) quantum dots (QDs) are prepared over mesoporous TiO2 films by a successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) process. These QDs are exploited as a sensitizer in solid‐state solar cells with 2,2′,7,7′‐tetrakis(N,N‐di‐p‐methoxyphenylamine)‐9,9′‐spirobifluorene (spiro‐OMeTAD) as a hole conductor. High‐resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images reveal that PbS QDs of around 3 nm in size are distributed homogeneously over the TiO2 surface and are well separated from each other if prepared under common SILAR deposition conditions. The pore size of the TiO2 films and the deposition medium are found to be very critical in determining the overall performance of the solid‐state QD cells. By incorporating promising inorganic QDs (PbS) and an organic hole conductor spiro‐OMeTAD into the solid‐state cells, it is possible to attain an efficiency of over 1% for PbS‐sensitized solid‐state cells after some optimizations. The optimized deposition cycle of the SILAR process for PbS QDs has also been confirmed by transient spectroscopic studies on the hole generation of spiro‐OMeTAD. In addition, it is established that the PbS QD layer plays a role in mediating the interfacial recombination between the spiro‐OMeTAD+ cation and the TiO2 conduction band electron, and that the lifetime of these species can change by around 2 orders of magnitude by varying the number of SILAR cycles used. When a near infrared (NIR)‐absorbing zinc carboxyphthalocyanine dye (TT1) is added on top of the PbS‐sensitized electrode to obtain a panchromatic response, two signals from each component are observed, which results in an improved efficiency. In particular, when a CdS‐sensitized electrode is first prepared, and then co‐sensitized with a squarine dye (SQ1), the resulting color change is clearly an addition of each component and the overall efficiencies are also added in a more synergistic way than those in PbS/TT1‐modified cells because of favorable charge‐transfer energetics. 相似文献

Ambipolar charge transport in a solution‐processed small molecule 4,7‐bis{2‐[2,5‐bis(2‐ethylhexyl)‐3‐(5‐hexyl‐2,2′:5′,2″‐terthiophene‐5″‐yl)‐pyrrolo[3,4‐c]pyrrolo‐1,4‐dione‐6‐yl]‐thiophene‐5‐yl}‐2,1,3‐benzothiadiazole (BTDPP2) transistor has been investigated and shows a balanced field‐effect mobility of electrons and holes of up to ~10?2 cm2 V?1 s?1. Using low‐work‐function top electrodes such as Ba, the electron injection barrier is largely reduced. The observed ambipolar transport can be enhanced over one order of magnitude compared to devices using Al or Au electrodes. The field‐effect mobility increases upon thermal annealing at 150 °C due to the formation of large crystalline domains, as shown by atomic force microscopy and X‐ray diffraction. Organic inverter circuits based on BTDPP2 ambipolar transistors display a gain of over 25. 相似文献

Ordering of semiconducting polymers in thin films from the nano to microscale is strongly correlated with charge transport properties as well as organic field‐effect transistor performance. This paper reports a method to control nano to microscale ordering of poly{[N,N′‐bis(2‐octyldodecyl)‐naphthalene‐1,4,5,8‐bis(dicarboximide)‐2,6‐diyl]‐alt‐5,5′‐(2,2′‐bithiophene)} (P(NDI2OD‐T2)) thin films by precisely regulating the solidification rate from the metastable state just before crystallization. The proposed simple but effective approach, kinetically controlled crystallization, achieves optimized P(NDI2OD‐T2) films with large polymer domains, long range ordered fibrillar structures, and molecular orientation preferable for electron transport leading to dramatic morphological changes in both polymer domain sizes at the micrometer scale and molecular packing structures at nanoscales. Structural changes significantly increase electron mobilities up to 3.43 ± 0.39 cm2 V?1 s?1 with high reliability, almost two orders of enhancement compared with devices from naturally dried films. Small contact resistance is also obtained for electron injection (0.13 MΩ cm), low activation energy (62.51 meV), and narrow density of states distribution for electron transport in optimized thin films. It is believed that this study offers important insight into the crystallization of conjugated polymers that can be broadly applied to optimize the morphology of semiconducting polymer films for solution processed organic electronic devices. 相似文献

Light‐induced generation of charges into an electron acceptor–donor phase‐segregated blend is studied. The blend is made of highly ordered nanoscopic crystals of 3″‐methyl‐4″‐hexyl‐2,2′:5′,2″:5″,2?:5?,2″″‐quinquethiophene‐1″,1″‐dioxide embedded into a regioregular poly(3‐hexylthiophene) matrix, acting as acceptor and donor materials, respectively. Kelvin probe force microscopy investigations reveal a tendency for the acceptor nanocrystals to capture the generated electrons whereas the donor matrix becomes more positively charged. The presence of particular positively charged defects, i.e., nanocrystals, is also observed within the film. The charging and discharging of both materials is studied in real time, as well as the effect of different acceptor–donor ratios. Upon prolonged thermal annealing at high temperatures the chemical structure of the blend is altered, leading to the disappearance of charge separation upon light irradiation. The obtained results allow a better understanding of the correlation between the nanoscopic structure of the photoactive material and solar‐cell performance. 相似文献

Several recent papers have demonstrated that charge‐carrier mobility in organic field‐effect transistors made of vacuum‐evaporated films may become temperature‐independent at low temperature. To account for this behavior, we developed a model based on the polycrystalline nature of these films, where charge transport is mostly limited by grain boundaries. The free‐carrier density in the intergrain regions is controlled by traps, which leads to the formation of back‐to‐back Schottky barriers at each side of the grain boundaries. The height and width of these barriers is estimated from solving Poisson’s equation using the graded‐channel approximation. It is shown that in most cases the barrier width is negligibly small as compared to the physical size of the grain boundaries. In the high‐temperature regime, the conducting channel can be simply described by grains and grain boundaries connected in series, so that the overall resistance reduces to that of the grain boundaries. At low temperatures, tunneling through the barrier becomes predominant, leading to temperature‐independent mobility. A complete two‐dimensional model for charge tunneling through the barriers is developed. A quantitative check of the model is made by least‐squares fitting of the gate voltage‐dependent current measured on an octithiophene transistor at low temperature, which gives a reasonable determination of the trap density and size of the grain boundaries. 相似文献

New electroactive and photoactive conjugated copolymers consisting of alternating 2,7‐carbazole and oligothiophene moieties linked by vinylene groups have been developed. Different oligothiophene units have been introduced to study the relationship between the polymer structure and the electronic properties. The resulting copolymers are characterized by UV‐vis spectroscopy, size‐exclusion chromatography, and thermal and electrochemical analyses. Bulk heterojunction photovoltaic cells from different copolymers and a soluble fullerene derivative, [6,6]‐phenyl‐C61 butyric acid methyl ester, have been fabricated, and promising preliminary results are obtained. For instance, non‐optimized devices using poly(N‐(4‐octyloxyphenyl)‐2,7‐carbazolenevinylene‐alt‐3″,4″‐dihexyl‐2,2′;5′,2″;5″,2″′;5″′,2″″‐quinquethiophenevinylene 1″,1″‐dioxide) as an absorbing and hole‐carrier semiconductor exhibit power conversion efficiency up to 0.8 % under air mass (AM) 1.5 illumination. These features make 2,7‐carbazolenevinylene‐based and related polymers attractive candidates for solar‐cell applications. 相似文献

2,7‐Bis(p‐methoxyphenyl‐m′‐tolylamino)‐9,9‐dimethylfluorene ( 1′ ), 2,7‐bis(phenyl‐m′‐tolylamino)‐9,9‐dimethylfluorene ( 2′ ) and 2,7‐bis(p‐fluorophenyl‐m′‐tolylamino)‐9,9‐dimethylfluorene ( 3′ ) have been synthesized using the palladium‐catalyzed reaction of the appropriate diarylamines with 2,7‐dibromo‐9,9‐dimethylfluorene. These molecules have glass‐transition temperatures 15–20 °C higher than those for their biphenyl‐bridged analogues, and are 0.11–0.14 V more readily oxidized. Fluorescence spectra and fluorescence quantum yields for dimethylfluorene‐bridged and biphenyl‐bridged species are similar, but the peaks of the absorption spectra of 1′ – 3′ are considerably red‐shifted relative to those of their biphenyl‐bridged analogues. Time‐of‐flight hole mobilities of 1′ – 3′ /polystyrene blends are in a similar range to those of the biphenyl‐bridged analogues. Analysis according to the disorder formalism yields parameters rather similar to those for the biphenyl species, but with somewhat lower zero‐field mobility values. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggest that the enforced planarization of the fluorene bridge leads to a slightly larger reorganization energy for the neutral/cation electron‐exchange reaction than in the biphenyl‐bridged system. Organic light‐emitting diodes have been fabricated using 1′ – 3′ /polystyrene blends as the hole‐transport layer and tris(8‐hydroxy quinoline)aluminium as the electron‐transport layer and lumophore. Device performance shows a correlation with the ionization potential of the amine materials paralleling that seen in biphenyl‐based systems, and fluorene species show similar performance to biphenyl species with comparable ionization potential. 相似文献

Flexible near‐infrared (NIR) light‐sensing detectors are strongly required in the fast‐growing flexible electronics era, because they can serve as a vision system like eyes in various innovative applications including humanoid robots. Recently, keen interest has been paid to organic phototransistors due to their unique signal amplification and active matrix driving features over organic photodiodes. However, conventional NIR‐sensing organic phototransistors suffer from the limited use of organic materials because the channel layers play a dual role in both charge transport and sensing so that organic semiconducting materials with reasonably high charge mobility can be applied only. Here, it is demonstrated that a conjugated polymer, poly[{2,5‐bis‐(2‐ethylhexyl)‐3,6‐bis‐(thien‐2‐yl)‐pyrrolo[3,4‐c]pyrrole‐1,4‐diyl}‐co‐{2,2′‐(2,1,3‐benzothiadiazole)]‐5,5′‐diyl}] (PEHTPPD‐BT), which exhibits no transistor performance as a channel layer, can stably detect a NIR light (up to 1000 nm) as a gate‐sensing layer (GSL) when it is placed between gate‐insulating layers and gate electrodes. The flexible array (10 × 10) detectors with the PEHTPPD‐BT GSLs could effectively sense NIR light without visible light interference by applying visible light cut films. 相似文献

This article presents a critical discussion of the various physical processes occurring in organic bulk heterojunction (BHJ) solar cells based on recent experimental results. The investigations span from photoexcitation to charge separation, recombination, and sweep‐out to the electrodes. Exciton formation and relaxation in poly[N‐9″‐hepta‐decanyl‐2,7‐carbazole‐alt‐5,5‐(4′,7′‐di‐2‐thienyl‐2′,1′,3′‐benzothiadiazole) (PCDTBT) and poly‐3(hexylthiophene) (P3HT) are discussed based on a fluorescence up‐conversion study. The commonly accepted paradigm describing the conversion of incident photons into charge carriers in the BHJ material is re‐examined in light of these femtosecond time‐resolved measurements. Transient photoconductivity, time‐delayed collection field, and time‐delayed dual pulse experiments carried out on BHJ solar cells demonstrate the competition between carrier sweep‐out by the internal field and the loss of photogenerated carriers by recombination. Finally, an emerging hypothesis is discussed: that bimolecular recombination accounts for the majority of recombination from short circuit to open circuit in optimized solar cells, and that bimolecular recombination is bias‐ and charge‐density‐dependent. The study of recombination loss processes in organic solar cells leads to insights into what must be accomplished to achieve the “ideal” solar cell. 相似文献
