Thermalization losses limit the photon-to-power conversion of solar cells at the high-energy side of the solar spectrum, as electrons quickly lose their energy relaxing to the band edge. Hot-electron transfer could reduce these losses. Here, we demonstrate fast and efficient hot-electron transfer between lead selenide and cadmium selenide...

Quantum interference is a well-known phenomenon that dictates charge transport properties of single molecule junctions. However, reports on quantum interference in donor-bridge-acceptor molecules are scarce. This might be due to the difficulties in meeting the conditions for the presence of quantum interference in a donor-bridge-acceptor system....

Two-dimensional networks of quantum dots connected by atomic bonds have an electronic structure that is distinct from that of arrays of quantum dots coupled by ligand molecules. We prepared atomically coherent two-dimensional percolative networks of PbSe quantum dots connected via atomic bonds. Here, we show that photoexcitation leads to...

Destructive quantum interference has been shown to strongly reduce charge tunneling rates across molecular bridges. The current consensus is that destructive quantum interference occurs in cross-conjugated molecules, while linearly conjugated molecules exhibit constructive interference. Our experimental results on photoinduced charge transfer in...

Semiconductor nanocrystals are promising for use in cheap and highly efficient solar cells. A high efficiency can be achieved by carrier multiplication (CM), which yields multiple electron-hole pairs for a single absorbed photon. Lead chalcogenide nanocrystals are of specific interest, since their band gap can be tuned to be optimal to exploit...

In this communication we report on the synthesis and charge mobility of highly soluble perylenebisimid derivatives.We show that introduction of alkylester side chains results in compounds combining a high solubility with charge mobilities up to 0.22 cm2 V_1 s_1. These materials are therefore interesting as an electron acceptor for solution...

Auger recombination (AR) can be an important loss mechanism for optoelectronic devices, but it is typically not very efficient at low excitation densities. Here we show that in conductive quantum-dot solids, AR is the dominant charge carrier decay path even at excitation densities as low as 10?3 per quantum dot, and that AR becomes faster as the...

Carrier multiplication, the generation of multiple electron–hole pairs by a single photon, is of great interest for solar cells as it may enhance their photocurrent. This process has been shown to occur efficiently in colloidal quantum dots, however, harvesting of the generated multiple charges has proved difficult. Here we show that by tuning...

Donor-acceptor structures have recently gained great popularity for the design of low band gap polymeric organic semiconductors. Presented here is a first systematic study of organic semiconductors based on columnar liquid crystals that consist of discotic and board-shaped donor-acceptor structures. The discotic benzotristhiophenetricarboxamide...

We report on investigations of optical generation of carriers in Si nanocrystals embedded in SiO2 matrix by time-resolved induced absorption technique. Results obtained for excitation below and above twice the bandgap energy h??<?2Eg and h??>?2Eg show very similar decay characteristics (within ?resolution ? 100 fs). When intensity of the signal...

This paper explores charge transport at the single molecule level. The conductive properties of both small organic molecules and conjugated polymers (molecular wires) are considered. In particular, the reasons for the transition from fully coherent to incoherent charge transport and the approaches that can be taken to describe this transition...

A bis(trialkoxybenzamide)-functionalized quaterthiophene derivative was synthesized and its self-assembly properties in solution were studied. In non-polar solvents such as cyclohexane, this quaterthiophene ?-system formed fibril aggregates with an H-type molecular arrangement due to synergistic effect of hydrogen bonding and ?-stacking. The...

The first two peaks of the optical extinction spectrum of PbSe nanocrystals in solution have been assigned in the literature to the 1Sh1Se and 1Ph1Pe transitions. In the present work we assign the transitions causing extinction in the energy region between these two lowest-energy peaks. Our femtosecond transient absorption data indicate that...

The exciton root-mean-square displacement (?D) in regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) deposited onto meso-tetrakis (n-methyl-4-pyridyl) porphyrin tetrachloride (H2TMPyP) has been determined from the photovoltaic response of a device based on these materials in a bilayer configuration. Excitons formed on illumination that reach the...

Alkyl substituted polyfluorenes are promising candidates for use in organic display applications due to efficient, pure blue (polarized) luminescence, high charge carrier mobility, and good processabilty. Poly(9,9?-dioctylfluorene) (PFO) is an especially interesting polyfluorene derivative, because of its self-organization into distinct...

The high frequency mobility of charge carriers on isolated ladder-type polymer chains with lengths ranging from 13 to 54 monomer units was measured. Experiments were performed on isolated chains in dilute solution and on bulk solid samples. The ac mobility of charge carriers measured at a microwave frequency near 30 GHz is strongly dependent on...
