Energy Mater. 2012, 2, 63–67 devices is higher than that (1.85%) of the PC61BM-based devices, probably due to better absorption of PC71BM relative to PC61BM. Thermal annealing at 110 C for 10 min improves Jsc and FF to 9.39 mA cm− 2 and 43.7%, respectively. The improved Jsc and FF leads to an enhanced efficiency of 3.73%, 44% enhancement relative to that for the as-cast device (Table 1, Figure 2a). More than 20 devices were fabricated and their average PCEs were 3.61%. The incident photon to converted current efficiency (IPCE) and absorption spectra of the blend thin film with donor/acceptor weight ratio of 1: 4 without and with annealing at 110 C are shown in Figure 2b. Compared to that of pure TT-TTPA solid film, absorption of the blend broadens and extends to 700 nm as a result of contribution from PC71BM. Increase in the absorbance of the blend film after annealing was also observed. The blend of TT-TTPA: PC71BM (1: 4, w/w) exhibits a broad IPCE plateau between 300 and 700 nm with a maximum of 49% at 480 nm. PC71BM makes significant contribution to IPCE, which is consistent with the PCE data. Thermal annealing improves the IPCE maximum to 55%.To understand the influence of charge carrier transport on photovotaic performance, we used space-charge limited current (SCLC) method to measure the hole and electron mobilities in the blend. Figure 3 shows the J–V curves for hole-only (a) and electron-only (b) devices processed as cast and annealed at 110 C. The average hole and electron mobilities for the blend as-cast were found to be 3.66× 10− 7 cm2 V− 1 s− 1 and 1.03× 10− 4 cm2 V− 1 s− 1, respectively. The percolation pathways for hole transport are poorly formed at low donor concentration (20%), leading to lower hole mobilities; while the percolation pathways for electron transport are well formed at high acceptor concentration (80%), leading to higher electron mobilities. After annealing at 110 C for 10 min, the blend exhibited hole mobility of 1.28× 10− 6 cm2 V− 1 s− 1 and electron mobility of 3.02× 10− 6 cm2 V− 1 s− 1.
