Abstract
An analytical description of the separation probability of a geminate pair in organic semiconductors is given. The initial diffusion of “hot” twins is anomalously strong due to energy disorder. This circumstance significantly increases the photogeneration quantum yield at low temperatures and weakens its temperature dependence relative to predictions of the Onsager model, in agreement with Monte Carlo and experimental results.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Physical Chemistry (JPC) Letters is devoted to reporting new and original experimental and theoretical basic research of interest to physical chemists, biophysical chemists, chemical physicists, physicists, material scientists, and engineers. An important criterion for acceptance is that the paper reports a significant scientific advance and/or physical insight such that rapid publication is essential. Two issues of JPC Letters are published each month.
