Abstract:
We have developed organic photodetectors based on two complementary wedge layers made of CuPc and C60 and observed a strong spatial dependence of the spectral response on the position of the incident light spot. Photocurrent measurements are correlated with atomic force microscopy (AFM), micro-Raman and ellipsometry maps in order to provide insights into the local donor/acceptor concentration, layer thickness and nature of the donor–acceptor interface along the direction of the thickness gradient. Deviations in spatial dependence between experimental photocurrent values and those predicted with a model assuming a sharp and well defined organic–organic interface are discussed in terms of inter-diffusion layers.
