Band dispersion and electronic lifetimes in crystalline organic semiconductors.

چکیده
The consequences of several microscopic interactions on the photoemission spectra of crystalline organic semiconductors are studied theoretically. It is argued that their relative roles can be disentangled by analyzing both their temperature and their momentum-energy dependence. Our analysis shows that the polaronic thermal band narrowing, which is the foundation of most theories of electrical transport in organic semiconductors, is inconsistent in the range of microscopic parameters appropriate for these materials. An alternative scenario is proposed to explain the experimental trends.

Electronic structure and band alignment of 9,10-phenanthrenequinone passivated silicon surfaces
a r t i c l e i n f o In this work we demonstrate that the room-temperature deposition of the organic molecule 9,10-phenanthrenequinone (PQ) reduces the surface defect density of the silicon (100) surface by chemically bonding to the surface dangling bonds. Using various spectroscopic measurements we have investigated the electronic structure and band alignment properties of the PQ/Si interface...

The electronic structure and linear and nonlinear optical susceptibilities of 2-methyl-4-nitroaniline (MNA) and 2-amino-4-nitroaniline (ANA) crystals have been studied using the full potential linear augmented plane wave method within density functional theory. In addition, we have investigated the excitonic effects by means of the bootstrap exchange-correlation kernel within time dependent den...

Abstract: In this work we investigate the electronic, optical, dynamic and thermoelectric properties of ternary copper-based Chalcogenides CuSbX2 (X= S, Se) compounds. Calculations are based on density functional theory and the semi-classical Boltzmann theory. Computations have been carried out by using Quantum-Espresso (PWSCF) package and ab-initio pseudo-potential technique. To estimate the e...
متن کاملHole doping by molecular oxygen in organic semiconductors: Band-structure calculations
The sensitive effect of O2 adsorption on the electronic properties of organic semiconductors is investigated by band structure calculation. O2 can actually p-dope the host materials even without illumination, i.e., a ground state property, in the circumstance of saturated coverage. Due to hybridization between O2 and polymer, Fermi level of the oxygenated system is pinned at the nearly half-fil...
متن کاملSingle-Crystal Pentacene Valence-Band Dispersion and Its Temperature Dependence.
The electronic structures of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) or the HOMO-derived valence bands dominate the transport nature of positive charge carriers (holes) in organic semiconductors. In the present study, the valence-band structures of single-crystal pentacene and the temperature dependence of their energy-momentum dispersion relations are successfully demonstrated using angl...
