Friend" ], "categories": [ "cond-mat.mes-hall" ], "abstract": "We report a new experimental method to measure the localization length of photo-generated carriers in an organic donor-acceptor photovoltaic blend by comparing their dielectric and electron spin-resonance susceptibilities which are simultaneously measured by monitoring the resonance frequency of a superconducting resonator. We show that at cryogenic temperatures excitons are dissociated into long lived states, but that these are confined within a separation of around $4\\;{\\rm nm}$. We determine the Debye and recombination times, showing the coexistence of a fast electrical response corresponding to delocalized motion, with glass-like recombination kinetics.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-12-21T11:47:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "localization length", "organic materials", "photo-generated charges", "organic donor-acceptor photovoltaic blend", "electron spin-resonance susceptibilities" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1312.6245C" } } }
