Charge transfer complexes formed by mixing the molecular acceptor tetrafluoro-tetracyanoquinodimethane (F4TCNQ) with different donor materials (based on oligothiophene/quinoxaline copolymers) in thin films were investigated. Infrared absorption spectroscopy was used to quantify the donor-acceptor charge transfer as function of acceptor concentration. Furthermore, current/voltage curves of such thin films were measured, and a pronounced increase of the conductivity was found for increasing acceptor concentration (up to three orders of magnitude). However, the dependence of the conductivity on acceptor concentration was sub-linear, implying that the charge carrier mobility was reduced upon charge transfer complex formation.
