摘要
We applied the steady-state photomodulation spectroscopy to vacuum-deposited films of thiophene oligomers with controlled mesoscopic organization in order to understand the relation between structural order and charge photogeneration. We studied alpha,omega-dihexylsexithiophene films, which are highly ordered, and beta,beta'-dihexylsexithiophene films, which are amorphous. We observed pairlike excitations in the former (bipolarons and pi-dimers), triplets and polarons in the latter. To explain the results we propose a topological dependent charge separation model in which both dimensionality and carrier mobility play a role.
