Abstract:Understanding the opto-electronic properties of semiconducting polymers under external strain is essential for their applications in flexible opto-electronic, lightemitting and photovoltaic devices. While prior studies have highlighted the impact of static strains applied on a macroscopic length scale, assessing the effect of a local transient deformation before structural relaxation occurs is challenging due to the required high spatio-temporal resolution. Here, we employ scanning ultrafast electron microscop… Show more
