Abstract
Reabsorption is one of the most fundamental optical phenomena, but it has rarely been considered in spectroscopy-based composition analysis for organic semiconductors. Here, we take four state-of-the-art organic solar cell (OSC) materials as examples, and systematically investigate the influence of reabsorption on photoluminescence emission and excitation spectra by both experimental studies and optical simulations. We find that the overlap between absorption and emission spectra of these OSC materials is strong enough for them to be affected by the reabsorption effect, and the effect becomes more obvious between different species in the multi-components systems. Moreover, three features of the reabsorption effect and the reabsorption strength are identified, with which we have successfully analyzed the composition in a range of OSC materials in both solution and solid-state films. Our work not only provides an important understanding of the largely overlooked feature of reabsorption in the widely used spectroscopic techniques but also offers an effective toolbox for the composition analysis of organic semiconductors.
期刊介绍:
Science China Materials (SCM) is a globally peer-reviewed journal that covers all facets of materials science. It is supervised by the Chinese Academy of Sciences and co-sponsored by the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the National Natural Science Foundation of China. The journal is jointly published monthly in both printed and electronic forms by Science China Press and Springer. The aim of SCM is to encourage communication of high-quality, innovative research results at the cutting-edge interface of materials science with chemistry, physics, biology, and engineering. It focuses on breakthroughs from around the world and aims to become a world-leading academic journal for materials science.
