Electron-Hole Recombination in Uniaxially Aligned Semiconducting Polymers (2008)
Journal Article
Zaumseil, J., Groves, C., Winfield, J., Greenham, N., & Sirringhaus, H. (2008). Electron-Hole Recombination in Uniaxially Aligned Semiconducting Polymers. Advanced Functional Materials, 18(22), 3630-3637. https://doi.org/10.1002/adfm.200800863

A promising, general strategy for improving performance of optoelectronic devices based on conjugated polymer semiconductors is to make better use of the fast intrachain transport along the covalently bonded polymer backbone. Little is known, however... Read More about Electron-Hole Recombination in Uniaxially Aligned Semiconducting Polymers.

Monte Carlo modeling of geminate recombination in polymer-polymer photovoltaic devices (2008)
Journal Article
Groves, C., Marsh, R., & Greenham, N. (2008). Monte Carlo modeling of geminate recombination in polymer-polymer photovoltaic devices. The Journal of Chemical Physics, 129(11), Article 114903. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.2977992

A Monte Carlo model is used to examine geminate pair dissociation in polymer-polymer photovoltaic devices. It is found that increasing one or both carrier mobilities aids geminate separation yield ηGS particularly at low fields. This, in turn, leads...

A microscopic model for the behavior of nanostructured organic photovoltaic devices (2007)
Journal Article
Marsh, R., Groves, C., & Greenham, N. (2007). A microscopic model for the behavior of nanostructured organic photovoltaic devices. Journal of Applied Physics, 101(8), Article 083509. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.2718865

We present a Monte Carlo model of carrier separation and recombination in nanostructured organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices which takes into account all electrostatic interactions, energetic disorder, and polaronic effects. This permits a detailed an... Read More about A microscopic model for the behavior of nanostructured organic photovoltaic devices.
