The efficiency with which photogenerated free carriers are extracted in excitonic solar cells is governed by the interactions between a number of material specific and device level properties and parameters: recombination dynamics, faster and slower carrier mobilities, contact potentials, etc. This complexity is inherent in disordered excitonic semiconductors, and understanding the underlying structure-property relationships is an ongoing endeavour in the field of organic solar cells. Questions such as – do higher mobility semiconductors necessarily deliver improved charge collection; how does supressed bimolecular recombination lead to fill factor maintenance especially at higher input irradiances [1]; or, how do we achieve high fill factors and efficiencies in thick junctions more suited to viable manufacturing [2]? In my talk I will examine some of the latest thinking in this area [3], and present data from a suite of emerging experimental techniques such as intensity dependent photocurrent, resistant dependent photovoltage and related extraction methodologies. I will also discuss recent findings on the interrelationship between the efficiency with which free charges are extracted and charge separated state formation – the two possibly connected through entropic considerations [4].
