Abstract

Photoinduced electron transfer (ET) is the most essential process for carrier photogeneration in organic optoelectronic devices. In azo compound-based layered photoreceptors, carrier photogeneration is sensitized by hole transport material (HTM) incorporation. We investigated this process to elucidate the highly sensitizing mechanism. First, the photoinduced ET efficiency and overall quantum efficiency were measured and compared ...
