摘要
We used continuous wave photoinduced absorption (PIA) spectroscopy to investigate long-lived polarons in blend of [6,6]-phenyl-C-61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) and regio-regular poly (3-hexylthiophene) (RR-P3HT) with below-gap excitation. Compared to above-gap excitation, the polarons exhibited thermally activated and multi-trap limited bimolecular recombination too, but with narrower distribution profile in polaron states in millisecond time regime. However, magnetophoto-induced absorption (MPA) of polarons presented much weaker magnetic field effect in below-gap excitation (similar to 0.5 mT) than in above-gap excitation (order of similar to 10 mT), although the underline mechanism is same as spin mixing of polaron pairs by the hyperfine interaction at small field region.
