Four-body recombination in organic bulk heterojunction solar cells: an alternative interpretation
PublikacjaWe demonstrate a new interpretation of the previously reported quadrimolecular recombination in organic bulk heterojunction solar cells.

Status Solidi RRL 6 300) interaction between exciton and electron–hole Langevin bound pair formed across the donor–acceptor interface is a four-particle process. This is in opposition to the treatment of this effect as a three-particle...
