Two-dimensional bimolecular recombination in amorphous organic semiconductors.
Sergey NovikovPublished in: Physical chemistry chemical physics : PCCP (2019)
We consider the two-dimensional bimolecular recombination of charge carriers in amorphous organic semiconductors having the lamellar structure. We calculate the dependence of the effective recombination rate constant on the carrier density taking into account the correlated nature of the energetic disorder typical for organic semiconductors. The resulting recombination kinetics demonstrates a very rich variety of behaviors depending on the correlation properties of the particular semiconductor and relevant charge density range.
