<p>The mechanistic study of molecular doping of organic semiconductors (OSC) requires</p><p>an improved understanding of the role and formation of integer charge transfer complexes</p><p>(ICTC) on a microscopic level. In the present work we go one crucial step beyond</p><p>the simplest scenario of an isolated bi-molecular ICTC and study ICTCs formed of</p><p>up to two (poly[2,6-(4,4-bis(2-ethylhexyl)-4H-cyclopenta[2,1-b,3,4-b”]dithiophene)-alt-4,7-(2,1,3-</p><p>benzothiadiazole)](PCPDT-BT) oligomers and up to two CN6-CP molecules. We find that depending</p><p>on geometric arrangement, complexes containing two conjugated oligomers and two</p><p>dopant molecules can show p-type doping with double integer charge transfer, resulting in either</p><p>two singly doped oligomers or one doubly doped oligomer. Interestingly, compared to an individual</p><p>oligomer-dopant complex, the resulting in-gap states on the doped oligomers are significantly</p><p>lowered in energy.

Charge carrier mobility in organic semiconductors is not a constant value unambigously characterizing some particular material, but depends on the electric field, temperature and even on time after it was generated or injected. The time dependence is particularly important for the thin-film devices where charge carriers pass the organic layer before mobility reaching its stationary value. Here we give a review of experimental techniques with ultrafast timeresolution enabling one to address the mobility kinetics and analyse properties of the time-dependent mobility in conjugated polymers and organic solar cells. We analyse kinetics during the charge carrier generation and extraction of free charge carriers. The mobility typically decreases by several orders of magnitude on a picosecond-nanosecond time scale; however, its kinetics also depends on the investigation technique. The mobility kinetics in blends for bulk heterojunction solar cells strongly depends on the stoichiometric ratio of donor and acceptor materials.

Molecular doping is a key process to increase the density of charge carriers in organic semiconductors. Doping-induced charges in polymer semiconductors result in the formation of polarons and/or bipolarons due...
