the charge-recombination processes occurring in the device. Although several charge transfer (CT) processes may limit the device efciency under operation, such as exciton quenching at the device contacts,[3,4] low polaron mobility,[5,6] or geminate recombination,[7] it is widely accepted that the main limiting CT process is the polaron recombination in the bulk of the material.[8,9] Indeed, this reaction has been studied in detail using several photo-induced spectroscopic techniques such as laser transient absorption spectroscopy (L-TAS),[10,11] photoinduced absorption (PIA),[12] etc. More recently, Shuttle et al. have demonstrated that transient photovoltage decay (TPV) can be used to study polaron-recombination kinetics and, moreover, several important cell parameters such as the accumulated charge under irradiation at different light intensities can also be recorded.[8,9] Organic solar cells based on a mono-substituted fullerene 1,1-bis(4,4-dodecyloxyphenyl-(5,6)C61, diphenylmethanofullerene (DPM12) have been previously reported with efciencies reaching 2.3% (80 mW cm2, 1.5 AM G).[13] Our DPM12-based organic solar cells showed a Voc that was 100 mV higher under 100 mW cm2 sun-simulated light intensity and an overall better device performance than PCBM/P3HT devices when illuminated with light of 1050 mW cm2 intensity, which is in good agreement with the above mentioned results. For this paper, we used the TPV technique with the aim of comparing our DPM12/P3HT devices with standard PCBM/P3HT solar cells and explaining the differences in the observed Voc under normal measurement conditions.

Organic solar cells made using a blend of DPM12 and P3HT are studied. The results show that higher Voc can be obtained when using DPM12 in comparison to the usual mono-substituted PCBM electron acceptor. Moreover, better device performances are also registered when the cells are irradiated with sun-simulated light of 1050 mW cm2 intensity. Electrochemical and time-resolved spectroscopic measurements are compared for both devices and a 100-mV shift in the density of states (DOS) is observed for DPM12/P3HT devices with respect to PCBM/P3HT solar cells and slow polaron-recombination dynamics are found for the DPM12/P3HT devices. These observations can be directly correlated with the observed increase in Voc, which is in contrast with previous results that correlated the higher Voc with different ideality factors obtained using dark-diode measurements. The origin for the shift in the DOS can be correlated to the crystallinity of the blend that is inuenced by the properties of the included fullerene.

1. Introduction
The origin of the open-circuit voltage (Voc) of bulk heterojunction solar cells containing a polymer and a mono-substituted fullerene is attracting extensive academic interest.[1,2] To date, a vast majority of the most efcient devices reported the use of a regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) polymer and PCBM ([6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester) as the electron-donor and electron-acceptor materials, respectively (Scheme 1). Upon light absorption excitons are formed and those are split into free carriers if they are close enough to the interface that is created when the materials are blended. For efcient devices, charge transport to the contact electrodes must be faster than

2. Results and Discussion

As previously reported, we estimated the energy values for the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of the monosubstituted fullerenes by recording the cyclic voltammograms of the pristine materials.[14] We estimated the LUMO energy level of the fullerene derivatives from the rst reduction potential (Figure 1).[1517] The fullerenes studied in this paper, showed similar values for their LUMO energy, namely, 3.7 eV with respect to the vacuum level for both PCBM and DPM12, which is in good agreement with previously published electrochemical measurements.

acceptor materials, which plays a role when the devices are prepared, a fact that has O C6H13 already been observed for different organic O photovoltaic (OPV) cells. A difference in crystallization may cause a shift or a different S n distribution of the DOS of the lm, which will lead to a change in the Voc. To carry out our experiments and prove or disprove our hypothesis, we used the same electrode P3HT material for all electrodes, thus, avoiding PCBM DPM12 small differences in Voc related to the use of Scheme 1.

We also used the same donor molecule for all devices, and mono-substituted acceptors. In doing so, In the model proposed by Scharber et al.[18] and Koster et al.[19] the difference in Voc should only be attributable to factors such the LUMO energy of the acceptor directly affects the Voc in the as charge recombination on the device, electrode selectivity devices. The model relates the maximum theoretical Voc that affecting the injection process, or energetic distribution of the can be obtained in an organic solar cell as the energy differHOMODonor and LUMOAcceptor levels. It is important to notice ence between the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) that other factors such as the charge-carrier mobility through energy of the donor and the LUMO energy of the acceptor. the materials may also affect the Voc and is strongly related to In this study, the donor is in both cases the same polymer, the recombination kinetics.[6,21] P3HT, and the fullerene derivatives used as acceptors seem to The JscVoc curves of the devices under dark conditions have the same LUMO energy. Nevertheless, different Voc values (Figure 2) showed signicant differences. The main factor were obtained in the complete, active devices (Figure 2, Table 1). We focused this study on revealing the origin of the obtained difference in Voc. Previous studies on DPM12/P3HT solar cells have explained the higher Voc by the fact that there are different ideality factors, as was obtained from dark-diode measurements. Moreover, from those measurements the same reduction potential was extracted for DPM12 and PCBM, similarly to the results obtained electrochemically.[13,20] However, we believe that it is very likely that in this case the difference in Voc could arise from the different crystallization properties of the two electronC12H25O

that affects the dark current is the mobility of the charges throughout the material, which is directly related to the morphology, the charge injection process from the electrodes, and the recombination reaction at the interface. Previous studies suggested that the origin of the dark current can be mainly explained by bimolecular recombination at the interface rather than the selectivity of the electrodes.[8,9] In our case, the high ll factors obtained suggest that the charge injection does not play a major role in the current generation. Therefore the differences found in the dark IV curves suggest a higher energy barrier for the recombination process in the DPM12 fullerene derivative samples. DPM12 showed an open circuit voltage that is 100 mV higher than that of PCBM, which may be related to a hindered recombination process for the DPM12 fullerene derivative. To address the polaron-recombination process under device working conditions, we measured the transient photo-voltage (TPV) over a range of different light biases (Figure 3). The transients obtained can be tted to an exponential decay
V = V0 + A exp(t/ )

technique can only be used in efcient devices, where the slow recombination kinetics ensure a proper measurement of the amount of charge in the device so that only a small loss of charge occurs due to recombination during the discharging of the device. As the accumulated charge depends on the device volume, we need to normalize this to the corresponding charge density taking into account that the device area is 0.09 cm2 and the thickness of the active layer is 90 nm and 70 nm for PCBM and DPM12, respectively. Figure 4 shows the charge density in the device for different photo-induced voltages.

and from there the mean lifetime () can be calculated, with A being an exponential prefactor, t is the decay time, and V and V0 are the voltage and the initial voltage, respectively. The TPV data in Figure 3 is in good agreement with a slower recombination process for the DPM12 with respect to the PCBM devices, showing on average an order of magnitude slower polaron recombination. In order to make a fair comparison of the recombination kinetics the accumulated charge in the device must also be measured, because the equilibrium position between charge formation and recombination is charge dependent. To monitor the accumulated charge in the device we carried out charge-extraction (CE) measurements. This technique consists of applying a white-light pulse that is large enough to reach the steady state under open-circuit conditions in the device. When the light pulse ends, the cell is short circuited through a 39 resistance, so that the total charge ow can be monitored with a digitalized oscilloscope. By integrating the drop in voltage the charge can be obtained through applying

Much to our surprise, the exponential curve for the DPM12 device is shifted by about 100 mV to higher potentials at small bias (approaching 1 sun (100 mW cm2)) with respect to the PCBM-based OPV cell. Our previous results, and several other reports on molecular photovoltaics, have demonstrated that the charge-extraction data can be used to obtain the capacitance of the device,[22] using a differential charging method, and, thus, a DOS distribution of the Fermi level in the whole device (Figure 5) can be calculated. Recently, it has also been suggested that the Voc in organic devices is governed by the carrier ability to ll the DOS and that the upper levels of the DOS are difcult to be lled with electrons because of the inherent increasing recombination dynamics.[23] Taking all the above experimental observations into account, we can attribute the 100-mV shift in the Voc for the DPM12 devices to either a change in the Gaussian distribution of the energy states or to a shift in the energy-band position. The origin of the change in the DOS distribution could

be explained by a difference in crystallinity of the active layer, which would lead to a difference in dispersion of the HOMO/ LUMO energy states (because molecules inside the lm have a different surrounding related to their packing), or it can also be explained by a shift in the Fermi-level position because of polymer crystallization. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) can be used to measure the heat energy that is released when a component in a melt crystallizes. For this experiment, a solution of fullerene and P3HT was prepared using the standard procedure described elsewhere and then dried on a crucible in which the DSC was carried out. In addition, pristine P3HT was also measured as a blank. Figure 6 shows the endothermic crystallization peaks. For the pristine P3HT sample a peak at 231 C with an onset at 160 C can be registered corresponding to the crystallization of P3HT. The presence of a second maximum in the peak can be ascribed to impurities. In the P3HT:PCBM case the endothermic peak is shifted to lower temperatures, which means that the presence of PCBM enhances the crystallization of the polymer, as the peak is situated at 212 C with its onset at 201 C. These results are in agreement with previously reported DSC measurements.[24] Strikingly, for the DPM12/P3HT mixture only a faint broad peak was observed, centered at 190 C. This corresponds to a hindered crystallization of the polymer because of the presence of the fullerene derivative DPM12. The lack of crystallization in the presence of the DPM12 moieties can explain the higher Voc observed in the annealed DPM12 devices. The lower current values can also be explained through a smaller hole mobility, which is related to the polymer crystallization. Such behavior has been observed before in P3HT:PCBM devices.[2527] Before annealing, the Voc was close to 0.8 V and after annealing it decreased to 0.55 V, whereas the Jsc increased by a factor of 5. In the DPM12 case the lack of crystallization leads to a high voltage and lower currents. The lm morphology was also measured using atomic force microscopy (AFM) on the lms prepared using the same procedure as that used to fabricate the efcient solar cell devices, in order to further prove the relationship between lm crystallization and the cell efciency. As shown in Figure 7 the annealing

The left images are the resulting morphology of spin coating the mixture on glass substrates, and the right images corresponds to annealed lms at 150 C for 20 min. It can be seen that the size of the surface features increases with the annealing process on the P3HT:PCBM lms, whereas this effect is much smaller on the P3HT:DPM12 lm.

process of 20 min at 150 C, induces a 50% increase of the surface roughness on the P3HT:PCBM lm, whereas the increase in surface roughness for P3HT:DPM12 lms is only 25%. This increase in surface roughness can be ascribed to the crystallization of P3HT, which is aided by the presence of PCBM but much hindered by that of DPM12. The roughness mean square is about 1.5 nm for the as-cast lms. The above results on the difference in voltage are also in good agreement with the cyclic voltammetry data of the blend lms on ITO (Figure 8), where a 100-mV shift towards higher oxidation potentials can be observed in the rst peak for the P3HT:DPM12 lm. Moreover, a shift in the HOMODonor energy position in blend lms related to crystallization of the fullerene moiety has been previously observed for P3HT:PCBM lms, combined with a change in color that can be seen by the naked eye or measured by UV-vis spectroscopy corresponding to a bathochromic shift.[28,29]

electron-donor polymer in both cases keeping the same cathode and anode composition. For optimized devices, DPM12 showed a slightly lower overall efciency than PCBM at full sunlight, however, an increase in Voc of 100 mV for DPM12 over PCBM was observed. The origin of this difference in the Voc has been proven to be related to slower chargerecombination dynamics in the DPM12/P3HT devices and a shift in the HOMODonor for DPM12/P3HT solar cells, which are directly related to the crystallization properties. Moreover, we have demonstrated that the charge-extraction technique allows changes in the DOS of different fullerene/P3HT devices to be measured and important information about energy-level characteristics of organic photovoltaic devices can, thus, be obtained.

4. Experimental Section
Indium tin oxide (ITO, 4 sq1)-covered glass substrates were rst cleaned with acetone in order to remove the photo-protective layer (5 min sonication). The glass substrates were then placed twice in an ultrasonic bath in 2-propanol (IPA) for 5 min. Finally, they were dried at 80 C for 10 min followed by an ozone treatment of 30 min. Highly conducting poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) (Baytron P) was spin-cast (5000 rpm, 1 min) with a thickness < 30 nm from aqueous solution (after passing a 0.20 mm cellulose acetate lter). The substrates were dried for 10 min at 110 C inside a glove box. The polymer used as the donor material was highly regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl) (P3HT) electronic grade, purchased from Rieke Specialty Polymers. PCBM was purchased from Nano-C and the chlorobenzene used was purchased from SDS in analytical grade. PCBM was outgassed with an argon ux and stored inside a nitrogenlled globe box. The solvent used for the P3HT:fullerene solution was a mixture of chlorobenzene (CB) and 1,2-di-chlorobenzene (ODCB) (50:50) because CB gives good results in terms of solubility and, therefore, homogeneity of the spin-coated lm. Using chlorobenzene the sensitivity of the morphology to heat treatment is better than for using chloroform.[30] ODCB raises the boiling point of the solution allowing for thicker lms and better phase segregation. The solution containing P3HT and the fullerene derivative was prepared inside a glove box (MB20G) under nitrogen atmosphere (< 0.1 ppm O2; < 0.1 ppm H2O). The solution was stirred at 65 C overnight. The spin coating of the photoactive layer

3. Conclusions
We have studied a new fullerene used as electron acceptor for bulk heterojunction solar cells, the diphenylmethanofullerene derivative DPM12. Although cyclic voltammetry suggests that the LUMO energy level for DPM12 is the same as that for the commonly used fullerene PCBM, different open circuit voltages were observed for standard devices based on these fullerenes. The devices were prepared using P3HT as the

was carried out inside the glove box and the conditions used were 900 rpm during 20 s, followed by 1100 rpm for 60 s. These conditions gave thicknesses in the range of 80 nm. Subsequently the devices were placed in a UHV chamber (2106 mbar), and 10 nm of calcium, followed by 200 nm of silver were deposited on top of the active layer through a shadow mask, which led to 9 mm2 devices. Thermal annealing was carried out by directly placing the completed devices on a digitally controlled hotplate at 150 C for 20 min inside the glove box. The thickness of the lms was measured with a stylus prolometer Ambios Tech. XP-1, from a scratch applied to the middle of the lm to have accurate measurements. Following fabrication, the lms were maintained under nitrogen atmosphere and stored in the dark until used. The JscVoc measurements were carried out with an ABET 150 W xenon light source equipped with an adequate set of lters to achieve a solar spectrum of 1.5 AM G. The light intensity was adjusted to 100 mW cm2 using a calibrated Si photodiode. The applied potential and cell current were measured with a Keithley model 2600 digital source meter. The current to voltage (IV) curves were measured automatically with homebuilt Labview software. For TPV measurements, devices were directly connected to an oscilloscope in open-circuit conditions (1 M). Then the device was illuminated with white light to set the desired Voc, at this point equilibrium between charge formation, due to the illumination with light, and charge recombination was reached. Under these steady-state conditions, a small pulse of light, which provoked a 2 mV increase in the voltage, was applied. The excess of charges recombine at approximately the same rate setting the equilibrium, which determines the Voc observed. This allowed us to obtain an idea of the polaron-recombination rate under certain illuminated working conditions. Differential scanning calorimetry was conducted under nitrogen at a scan rate of 10 C min1 with a Mettler Toledo DSC822e instrument. The sample weight was 10 mg. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) of the samples was performed in the tapping mode on a molecular imaging model Pico SPM II (pico +). The images were collected in air using silicon probes with a typical spring constant of 15 nN m1 and a resonant frequency of 75 kHz.
