In the quest for new efficient electron acceptor/donor couples for bulk heterojunction organic solar cells, we report the study of an important family of electron acceptors: rylenes were investigated as associated with P3HT. Photophysical studies including photoluminescence, steady-state photo-induced absorption ans electron spin resonance confirmed the good charge generation properties of TDI:P3HT blends. Nevertheless no correlation could be established between generated charges and devices performances. Further studies of this mismatch were carried out by investigating the charge transport properties of the materials using Charge Extraction by Linearly Increasing Voltage as well as Field Effect Transistor measurements. The acceptors and donor were varied in order to maximize the charge separation driving force. Those experiments enabled to emphasize two key limiting factors for bulk heterojunction solar cells: charge transport ability of each material and morphological compatibility of the blended components.
