摘要: In this letter we report the carrier mobilities in an inorganic nanocrystal: conducting polymer composite. The composite material question (lead sulphide nanocrystals poly [2-methoxy-5-(2′-ethyl-hexyloxy)-p-phenylene vinylene] (MEH-PPV) was made using a single-pot, surfactant-free synthesis. Mobilties were measured time of flight techniques. We have found that inclusion PbS MEH-PPV both balances and markedly increases hole electron mobilities—the mobility is increased by factor ∼105 ∼107 under applied bias 5kVcm−1. These results explain why dramatic improvements electrical conductivity photovoltaic performance are seen devices fabricated from these composites.
