Abstract

Large photovoltaic responses have been recently observed in devices based on donor-acceptor blends. Their enhanced performance, which relies on the formation of a bicontinuous network of internal heterojunctions, is very sensitive to the morphology of the blend. In this paper, we propose sexithiophene-C 60 blends, prepared by coevaporation, as a model system for the study of these devices. Preliminary results suggest a microphase-separated morphology with a domain size comparable to the exciton diffusion range. Photovoltaic cells based on the blends are demonstrated.
