Abstract

Picosecond and nanosecond transient absorption spectroscopy and picosecond transient dichroism measurements were applied for elucidating photoinduced charge-separation, charge-recombination (CR), and hole-transfer (HT) processes in amorphous solid films of carbazolyl dimeric compounds (1,3-di(N-carbazolyl)propane and 1,2-trans-di(N-carbazolyl)cyclobutane) doped with 1,2,4,5-tetracyanobenzene (TCNB). Time-resolved fluorescence spectra were also measured for elucidating fluorescent states responsible for recombination emission. These results were compared with those for poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVCz), where the concentration of carbazolyl (Cz) chromophores is the same as the above dimeric compounds. The ground-state charge-transfer (CT) absorption and the steady-state CT fluorescence spectra were different between the present dimeric and the PVCz films. In both the films, the CR process was in competition with the HT process in the initial charge-separated state produced via the photoexcitation of the ground...
