Triplets in Organic Photovoltaics
23rd November 11-12pm
711c Huxley Building, South Kensington
Abstract: Organic photovoltaics (OPV) are close to reaching a landmark 20% device efficiency. One of the proposed reasons that OPVs have yet to attain this milestone is their propensity toward triplet formation. However, the observation of significant triplet populations in high-performing blends suggests that the influence of triplet states may not be so simple. Using a variety of spectroscopic techniques, I will discuss systems in which triplets are either a hindrance or a help.
