N. Camaioni et al., Slow transient photoresponse in Schottky-type junctions based on poly(4,4 ''-dipenthoxy-3 '-octyl-2,2 ': 5 ',2 ''-terthiophene), J APPL PHYS, 89(10), 2001, pp. 5488-5490
We report a study of the slow transient phenomena observed, under continuou
s illumination, in the response of the sandwich-type structure indium-tin-o
xide/poly(4,4"-dipenthoxy-3'-octyl-2,2':5',2"-terthiophene)/Al. The analysi
s of the transient component of the open-circuit voltage revealed that reco
mbination processes are greatly enhanced under illumination, limiting the p
erformance of this kind of devices. (C) 2001 American Institute of Physics.
