Abstract
The transient conductivity of a spincoated poly(3-hexylthiophene) film upon
laser excitation is probed using an electrodeless microwave conductivity t
echnique which circumvents the drawbacks of electrode contacts, space charg
e and polarization in conventional DC methods. The dependence of the kineti
cs and the peak values of the conductivity transients is investigated as a
function of excitation wavelength and intensity. From these results, insigh
t into the mechanism of charge carrier generation, mobility and decay can b
e obtained.
