Efficient, Stable Bulk Charge Transport in Crystalline/Crystalline Semiconductor–Insulator Blends

Abstract: Efficient and stable ambipolar charge transport in the bulk of crystalline/crystalline P3HT/HDPE systems, as evidenced by time‐of‐flight (TOF) photoconductivity measurements, is found. Interestingly, certain blend compositions displayed significantly enhanced bulk charge‐transport properties compared to neat P3HT, with μTOF measured for 80:20 wt% P3HT:PE blends being up to one order of magnitude higher than those found in neat P3HT.

“…12 Moreover, also in a diode made from a crystalline blend of P3HT and highdensity polyethylene ambipolar transport has been observed recently. 13 All other reported experiments on electron-only ͑EO͒ diodes of conjugated polymers exhibit strongly reduced current that mask the transport of free electrons. For the case that E tc = 0, as show in Fig.…”

“…[34][35][36][37] Here, we set out to investigate if n-type organic composites could be obtained by mixing a p-type conjugated polymer with nitrogen doped n-type CNTs. We chose poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) since it can show ambipolar transport [ 38 ] and can wrap around CNTs. [ 36 ] A moderate regioregularity of RR > 90% was selected in order to not limit the solubility of the polymer.…”

“…3,4 Blending of organic materials is an attractive approach to optimize and tune the properties of the materials for device applications. [5][6][7][8][9][10] Additionally, blending can result in new phenomena and properties as a result of intermolecular interactions, selforganization ͑or its frustration͒, and confinement effects. 7,11 In organic photovoltaic devices it is especially critical to use a blend rather than a neat material.…”
