Abstract

The effect of a dc electric field on the evolution of the electronic absorption spectra of poly(N-epoxypropylcarbazole) (PEPC), poly(styrene) (PS), and poly(vinyl butyral) (PVB) films doped with methine dyes is investigated. It is revealed that these spectra in the absorption range of the dye undergo transformations depending on the dipole moment and the symmetry of the π-electron structure of dye molecules. The inference is made that the electron density in the dye molecule is redistributed in an external electric field. This redistribution gives rise to the electric field-induced anisotropy in the spatial distribution function of photogenerated electron-hole pairs in amorphous molecular semiconductors.
