Abstract

We observe a universal feature in the frequency (ω) dependence of intensity-modulated photocurrent Iph(ω) based on studies of a variety of efficient bulk-heterojunction polymer solar cells. This feature of Iph(ω) appears in the form of a local maximum in the 5<ωmax<10 kHz range and is observed to be largely independent of the external parameters such as modulated light intensity (Lac), wavelength (λ), temperature (T), and external field over a wide range. Simplistic kinetic models involving carrier generation, recombination, and extraction processes are used to interpret the overall essential features of Iph(ω) and correlate it to the device parameters.
