Abstract

Addition of fullerenes to p-conjugated polymers results in an electron transfer process from the conjugated polymer onto the fullerenes upon illumination. The photoinduced electron transfer in these composites is ultrafast with a quantum efficiency approaching unity. The separated charges are metastable. This photoinduced electron transfer may be utilized in interesting applications like photodiodes and solar cells.
