The quantum chemical calculation shows that the introduction of benzothiadiazole unit facilitates the intrachain charge transfer (ICT) and modulates the electronic transition mechanism of polymer. The transient absorption measurement exhibits that intrachain exciton relaxation is dominant in the decay of excited PFO in a monodis- perse system and intrachain exciton interaction could appear at high excitation intensity. In F8BT solution, the ICT state exists and participates in the relaxation of excited state. The relaxation processes of PFO and F8BT in the condensed phase both accelerate and show obvious exciton-exciton annihilation behavior at high excitation intensity. At the same excitation intensity, the mean lifetime of F8BT is longer than that of PFO, which may be assigned to the excellent delocalization of charge.展开更多

The chemical calculations confirm that the intrachain charge transfer (ICT) may occur after photo-excitation and is mainly responsible for the first absorption band. The transient absorption results confirm that ICT indeed exists and competes with the vibra-tional relaxation at the same time, when APFO3 is in a monodisperse system. This ICT process would disappear due to the influence of interchain interaction when APFO3 is in the condensed phase, where the exciton decay would be dominant in the relaxation process after photoexcitation. The photoexcitation dynamics of APFO3 film blending with PC61BM are presented, which shows that the exciton may be dissociated completely as the percentage of PC61BM reaches ~50%. Meanwhile, the photovoltaic performance based on blend het-erojunction shows that the increase of photocurrent is little if the percentage of PC61BM exceeds ~50%. Overall, the present study has covered several fundamental processes taking place in the APFO3 polymer.展开更多
