Charge transfer between electron donating and accepting organic semiconductors (OSCs) is pivotal for exploiting the full potential of OSCs in devices [1].
Tetracene is a prototypical OSC and exhibits interesting optical properties and effects like singlet fission, making it a promising material for solar energy conversion [2]. The competition between charge transfer to organic acceptors and singlet fission has, however, received little attention in tetracene so far [3][4]. In this work, blends of tetracene and two common, strong acceptors, F6-TCNNQ and F4-TCNQ, have been grown and investigated. Based on thorough structural and morphological investigations we studied and compared the photophysics of blends with different mixing ratios. The dynamics of these fundamentally interesting systems were examined by transient absorption spectroscopy.
