Abstract

We report our results on the influence of the dipole moment of small molecules anchored to the surface of CdSe nanocrystals, over the interfacial charge recombination dynamics in CdSe/P3HT (P3HT:poly-3-hexylthiophene). The polarizability of the CdSe/P3HT interface is key to achieving efficient charge separation and slow back electron transfer, two of the most important processes to boost the photocurrent and voltage in CdSe/P3HT photovoltaic devices.
