Фотофизические свойства тонких пленок перилена, модифицированного функциональными группами диангидрида и диимида тетракарбоновой кислоты

Abstract

The morphology of organic semiconductor films of perylenetetracarboxylic acid dianhydride (PTCDA) and perylenetetracarboxylic acid dibenzyl-diimide (N, N`-DBPTCDI) formed by thermal vacuum deposition was studied by atomic force microscopy. It was shown that annealing of films at 420 K leads to rearrangement of their structure and crystallization. The optical absorption spectra of the films under study were used to estimate the optical band gap. The temperature dependence of the dark conductivity of PTCDA and N, N-DBPTCDI films before and after annealing (Т = 420 K) was established. The values of the activation energy of charge carrier traps are determined. The computer simulation of the density of localized states in the band gap of the films studied was carried out using the photoconductivity spectra in the constant photocurrent mode. Model photovoltaic cells based on PTCDA / СuPc and N, N-DBPTCDI / СuPc structures were formed. The kinetics of decay of the interfacial photo-voltage of the cells prepared was measured using pulsed light as an excitation source. On the basis of the performed measurements, the charge carrier mobility values in the investigated semiconductor materials were estimated.
