Range and energetics of charge hopping in organic semiconductors
The recent upswing in attention for the thermoelectric properties of organic semiconductors (OSCs) adds urgency to the need for a quantitative description of the range and energetics of hopping transport in organic semiconductors under relevant circumstances, i.e., around room temperature (RT). In particular, the degree to which hops beyond the nearest neighbor must be accounted for at RT is st...
متن کاملCarrier heating in disordered organic semiconductors
We propose a semi-implicit model for hopping transport in disordered media with application to organic semiconductors. The results show excellent agreement with both Monte Carlo and standard master-equation calculations. In organic LEDs the applied field would result in heating of the charge carrier population by up to 100 °C above the lattice temperature and is more effective at lower temperat...
متن کاملThermoelectricity in Disordered Organic Semiconductors under the Premise of the Gaussian Disorder Model and Its Variants.
Using Monte Carlo simulations, we investigate the thermoelectric properties of disordered organic semiconductors under the premise of the Gaussian disorder model and its variants. In doing so, we provide much needed additional dimensions for comparison between these theoretical frameworks and real systems beyond those based on extensively studied charge-transport properties and aim to provide a...
متن کاملModelling charge transport in organic semiconductors with a fragment-orbital based surface hopping method
Charge transport in organic semiconductors is an important current topic of research, but the exact nature of the charge transport remains an unresolved question. Experimental evidence exists to support either of two common models (band-like transport or small polaronic hopping) and various computational simulations suggest that for the standard parameter ranges for organic semiconducting devic...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Studies of Charge Transport Below the Mobility Edge
Charge transport below the mobility edge, where the charge carriers are hopping between localized electronic states, is the dominant charge transport mechanism in a wide range of disordered materials. This type of incoherent charge transport is fundamentally different from the coherent charge transport in ordered crystalline materials. With the advent of organic electronics, where small organic...
