Charge transfer processes and carrier dynamics at the pentacene - C60 interface
摘要： Heterostructures of pentacene (PEN) and Buckminsterfullerene (C60) are frequently attracting scientific interest as a well-defined small-molecule model-system for the study of internal interfaces between two organic semiconductors. They are prototypical representatives forming a donor-acceptor combination for studies of fundamental optoelectronic processes in organic photovoltaics. Despite their importance in exciton dissociation, the energetics of their interfacial charge-transfer (CT) states and their microscopic excitation dynamics are not yet clarified and still being discussed. Here, we present steady-state and time-resolved photoluminescence measurements on stacked heterostructures between these two materials. All experiments are performed in the visible and near-infrared spectral regions as CT states are expected at energies below the fundamental electronic transitions of the respective bulk materials. A characteristic, interface specific emission at around 1.13-1.17 eV is found, which we attribute to an interfacial CT state. Its excitation-energy dependence reveals the intricate relaxation dynamics of excitons formed in both constituent materials. Moreover, the analysis of the dynamics of the C60 excitons shows that the lifetime of this state is reduced in the presence of an interface with PEN. This quenching is attributed to a long-range interaction, i.e., the relaxation of excitations into the interfacial CT state.

Applied Nanophotonics || Energy transfer processes
摘要： In this chapter, we introduce the general phenomenon of excitation energy transfer, explain radiative and nonradiative types of energy transfer, and derive the basic processes of energy transfer. We look at the F?rster resonance energy transfer (FRET) in particular. We also describe Dexter energy transfer, charge transfer, exciton diffusion, and exciton dissociation. Finally, we summarize the modifications of FRET when using nanostructures with mixed dimensionalities and in different assemblies.
