Electrical and photovoltaic properties of Al| octaethylporphine| Ag and also Al| tetraphenylporphine| Ag sandwich cells are reported. These properties indicate the presence of a Schottky barrier formed by transfer of electrons from the aluminum to the porphyrin. Most or all of the porphyrin is depleted of holes for films several hundred nanometers thick. Charge carriers are produced by three processes:(i) direct production of electron-hole pairs by photons with energies of 3 eV or more;(ii) dissociation of excitons at the aluminum-porphyrin interface; and (iii) dissociation of excitons in the bulk material. At low light levels the quantum yield for current production is 3.4% for octaethylporphine illuminated by 400-nm light and 0.9% for tetraphenylporphine illuminated by 440-nm light. At higher light levels the quantum yieldfor current production decreases due to recombination of electrons and holes.
