Charge transfer in photovoltaics consisting of interpenetrating networks of conjugated polymer and TiO2 nanoparticles
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of blended and layered titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles on charge transfer processes in conjugated polymer photovoltaics was studied. And the results for the layered morphologies are consistent with charge collection by exciton diffusion and dissociation at the TiO2 interface.
