Slow geminate‐charge‐pair recombination dynamics at polymer: Fullerene heterojunctions in efficient organic solar cells
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract We explore charge recombination dynamics at electron donor‐acceptor heterojunctions, formed between a semiconductor polymer (PCDTBT) and a fullerene derivative (PC70BM), by means of combined time‐resolved photoluminescence and transient absorption spectroscopies. Following prompt exciton dissociation across the heterojunction, a subset of bound electron‐hole pairs recombines with a temperature‐independent rate distribution spanning submicrosecond timescales to produce luminescent charge‐transfer excitons (CTX). At 14 K, this slow mechanism is the dominant geminate charge recombination pathway, whereas we also observe CTX emission on subnanosecond timescales at 293 K. We thus find that at these temperatures, a fraction of the initial charge‐pair population is trapped deeply such that they only recombine slowly over a broad distribution of timescales by quantum tunneling. We identify geminate polaron pairs (GPP) as a reservoir of long‐lived localized states that repopulate the CTX up to microsecond timescales. The observation of such distributed geminate‐charge recombination highlights the importance of the molecular nature of specific donor–acceptor electronic interactions in defining the relaxation pathways of trapped GPP. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
