We studied photocarrier dynamics in organic photovoltaics by terahertz time domain spectroscopy. Transient THz absorption decays in C60 and zinc phthalocyanine span a wide range of timescales and reveal how to optimize photocarrier yields. We find evidence for direct excitation of a charge transfer state of C60 and morphology dependent excitation of free carriers.

Carrier dynamics of composite and nanolayered films of zinc phthalocyanine and C-60 measured by time-resolved terahertz spectroscopy Lane, Paul A.; Melinger, Joseph S.; Esentürk, Okan; Heilweil, Edwin J. (2009-08-06) We present a study of charge transfer and carrier dynamics in films of zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc) and buckmisnsterfullerene (C-60) investigated by time-resolved terahertz spectroscopy (TRTS). These films are model structures for charge generation layers in organic photovoltaics and their intrinsic properties are therefore of interest. We compare two classes of films: composite films of ZnPc and C-60 prepared by co-evaporation and layered ZnPc/C-60 films prepared by alternating deposition. We find evidence f...
Phonon dispersions and elastic constants of disordered Pd-Ni alloys Kart, SO; Tomak, Mehmet; Cagin, T (Elsevier BV, 2005-01-31) Phonon frequencies of Pd-Ni alloys are calculated by molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. Lattice dynamical properties computed from Sutton-Chen (SC) and quantum Sutton-Chen (Q-SC) potentials as a function of temperature are compared with each other. We present all interatomic force constants up to the 8th nearest-neighbor shell obtained by using the calculated potential. Elastic constants evaluated by two methods are consistent with each other. The transferability of the potential is also tested. The result...
PHOTO-CARRIER DYNAMICS OF BLENDED AND MULTI-LAYERED FILMS OF ZINC PHTHALOCYANINE AND C-60 MEASURED BY TIME-RESOLVED TERAHERTZ SPECTROSCOPY Melinger, Joseph S.; Lane, Paul; Esentürk, Okan; Heilweil, Edwin (2010-06-25) We present a study of photo-induced carrier dynamics in organic thin films that contain zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc) and buckminsterfullerene (C-60) investigated by ultrafast time resolved terahertz spectroscopy (TRTS). We compare two classes of films: 1) blend films of ZnPc and C-60 prepared by co-evaporation, and 2) superlattice films from alternating neat layers of ZnPc and C-60, where the individual layer varies in thickness between 2 nm and 40 nm. These films are model structures for the charge generatio...
Segregation formation, thermal and electronic properties of ternary cubic CdZnTe clusters: MD simulations and DFT calculations KURBAN, MUSTAFA; Erkoç, Şakir (Elsevier BV, 2017-04-01) Surface and core formation, thermal and electronic properties of ternary cubic CdZnTe clusters are investigated by using classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and density functional theory (DFT.) calculations. In this work, MD simulations of the CdZnTe clusters are performed by means of LAMMPS by using bond order potential (BOP). MD simulations are carried out at different temperatures to study the segregation phenomena of Cd, Zn and Te atoms, and deviation of clusters and heat capacity. After that,...
Vibrational spectroscopy of hydrogen-bonded systems: Six-dimensional simulation of the IR spectrum of F-(H2O) complex Toffolı, Danıele; Sparta, Manuel; Christiansen, Ove (Elsevier BV, 2011-06-24) The vibrational dynamics of the F-(H2O) complex is studied using highly accurate six-dimensional molecular potential energy and dipole moment surfaces calculated at the CCSD (T)/cc-pVQZ and CCSD (T)/augcc-pVTZ levels with a multiresolution approach. The extent of mode-coupling is investigated with full vibrational configuration-interaction (FVCI) calculations. Coriolis coupling effects are also included with the aim to obtain quantitative agreement with the experimental data available. The vibrational absor...
