Photoinduced electron-transfer processes are enhanced or quenched by application of electric fields, depending on the donor–acceptor pairs. Electric-field-induced quenching of photoluminescence, which results from the field-induced dissociation of the exciton state that depends on the photoexcitation wavelength, is observed in π-conjugated polymers. These electric-field effects on photoinduced dynamics have been confirmed by the measurements both of electroabsorption and electrophotoluminescence spectra and of time-resolved electrophotoluminescence decays. Time-resolved measurements of photocurrent, with which novel material function in electrical conductivity of organic materials induced by photo-irradiation and application of electric fields is confirmed, are also reviewed.

The theory of Bloch electron dynamics in spatially homogeneous electric fields of arbitrary strength and time dependence is presented. In the formalism, the electric field is described through the use of the vector potential, and the instantaneous eigenstates of the Hamiltonian are used as basis stated to depict the Bloch dynamics and quantum properties. This approach leads to a natural indication of high- and low-filed limits, and allows for the inclusion of general band-structure effects and multiband coupling in the quantum dynamics. A variety of dc electric field effects, such as Bloch oscillations, Zener tunneling, and localization, and ac electric field effects, such as interband absorption, and phonon-assisted transport, will be discussed.

ABSTRACTThe objective of this paper is to demonstrate that Ag readily diffuses into Sb2S3 and that electric fields can control the diffusion. Ag diffusion influences the crystallization temperature and electrical properties of Sb2S3. We studied the interface between Ag and Sb2S3 using X-ray reflectivity and show that the Ag cations can be controlled by applying an electric field. We believe this effect has technological applications in data storage devices.
