Abstract

A photoinduced electron-transfer reaction has been observed in three fullerene−donor−fullerene triads containing an electron-rich pyrrole ring in the donor moiety. The kinetics of charge separation in solution has been investigated by photoluminescence and transient absorption spectroscopy. The polarity of solvent and the distance between donor and acceptor affect the forward electron-transfer reaction, in qualitative agreement with a semiempirical model for the Gibbs free energy for charge separation. Depending on the conditions, charge separation occurs at a rate of 109−1010 s-1. The charge recombination rate is estimated to be faster than 2 × 1010 s-1. The relatively large contribution of the singlet-excited-state Sn ← S1 absorption of the fullerene moiety to the photoinduced absorption hampered a more accurate determination of the recombination rate.

Abstract

A donor-donor-acceptor triad, OAn-OPV-C-60, With a redox gradient has been synthesized by covalently linking an oligoaniline (OAn), an oligo(p-phenylene vinylene) (OPV), and a fullerene (C-60) in a nonconjugated linear array. Photoluminescence and femtosecond pump-probe spectroscopy studies reveal that photoexcitation of any of the three chromophores of this triad in a polar solvent results in formation of the OAn(-)OPV(+)-C-60(-) charge-separated state, after an efficient ultrafast ( 1 ns) due to weak electronic coupling between the distant redox sites in the excited state. The stabilization gained is more than I order of magnitude in time. The experimental results are found to be in qualitative agreement with Marcus theory. In thin films, the OAn(+)-OPV-C-60(-) state is formed at a higher rate and in higher quantum yield than in solution.
