Charge Carrier Mobility in Poly(N,N′-bis-4-butylphenyl-N,N′-bisphenyl)benzidine Composites with Electron Acceptor Molecules

Polymer composites based on poly(N,N′-bis-4-butylphenyl-N,N′-bisphenyl)benzidine (poly-TPD) with PCBM and copper(II) pyropheophorbide derivative (Cu-PP) were developed. In thin films of the poly-TPD and Cu-PP composites, the charge carrier mobility was investigated for the first time. In the ternary...

Description
Summary:Polymer composites based on poly(N,N′-bis-4-butylphenyl-N,N′-bisphenyl)benzidine (poly-TPD) with PCBM and copper(II) pyropheophorbide derivative (Cu-PP) were developed. In thin films of the poly-TPD and Cu-PP composites, the charge carrier mobility was investigated for the first time. In the ternary poly-TPD:PCBM:Cu-PP composite, the electron and hole mobilities are the most balanced compared to binary composites and the photoconductivity is enhanced due to the sensitization by Cu-PP in blue and red spectral ranges. The new composites are promising for use in the development of photodetectors.
