The dynamics of ultrafast photon-to-charge conversion in a copper-phthalocyanine (CuPc)-C₆₀ heterojunction is studied by femtosecond time-resolved X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (tr-XPS) at the free-electron laser FLASH. The technique provides site-specific access to electron dynamics and monitors the generation and decay of interfacial charge-transfer (ICT) states after excitation with 775 nm photons. A previously unobserved channel for ICT separation into mobile charge carriers with an efficiency of 22 ± 7 % is identified, providing a direct measure of the internal quantum efficiency of the heterojunction for this channel.
