Microphase separated donor-acceptor block copolymers are promising systems for morphology control in OPV's. A nanostructure on exciton diffusion length scale, crystalline order and percolating pathways for charge transport are pre-requisites for obtaining good device properties. We here present a systematic study of the correlation between structure and charge transport in thin films of P3HT-b-PPerAcr after different thermal treatments. Combining AFM, microscopy and GISAXS we show that films annealed in the melt state above the melting temperatures of both components form typical microphase separated structures oriented parallel to the substrate, while films crystallized from the disordered state as obtained from spin coating show no well-defined microphase separated structures. GIWAXS measurements reveal that crystallization from the ordered state leads to strongly textured samples. Charge carrier mobilities as measured by SCLC were improved by 2 orders of magnitude in films crystallized from the disordered state, the unfavorable orientation of the microphase morphology in melt annealed films resulted in poor device performance.
