Organic Magnetoresistance: The effect of excitons on charge transport in organic semiconductors — •William Gillin — Queen Mary, University of London, UK

It has been known since 2003 that applying a magnetic field to an organic light emitting diode (OLED) will cause changes in both the light output (efficiency) of a device and the current through the device (organic magnetoresistance or OMR). The observation of this phenomenon has spurred a number of models to explain the observations but these can be classified in to two broad classes: excitonic and bipolaron. As the effect of the magnetic field is to apply a small perturbation to existing spin dependent processes that are affecting charge transport and recombination, the study of OMR provides an interesting new tool for understanding these processes. In this talk I will highlight the recent developments in the study of organic magnetoresistance and illustrate that the effect probably has several components which are all acting in parallel and which can have different signs and magnetic field dependencies. By developing an understanding of the different magnetic field characteristics of different processes we may open a door on to a new way of studying the interactions responsible for the fundamental operation of organic electronic devices.
