The photovoltaic and charge transport properties of solar cells whose active layer is made from poly[3-(4-octylphenyl)-2, 2′-bithiophene](PTOPT) was studied. Devices are prepared in a sandwich-type structure of the form Al/PTOPT/PEDOT:PSS/ITO. The diodes showed good rectification needed for the PV cell. The symmetric nature of the semilogarithmic J–V plot under dark and low temperature reveals that there is a unipolar charge injection in both sides of the electrodes. Based on the space charge limited region J–V data, it was possible to study the electric field dependence of the hole transport, which enable us to derive important parameters such as the zero field mobility (μo) and the field activation factor (γ).

The electron time decay in an afterglow following a short pulsed d.c. discharge in CO has been investigated using microwave diagnostic techniques. The gas was heated to an average temperature of 775 °K. Two-body electron-ion recombination and ambipolar diffusion were found to be the only important electron removal mechanisms present in the pressure interval [Formula: see text] Torr with the rate constants αr = 3.9 × 10−7 cm3 s−1 and Dap0 = 372 cm2 s−1 Torr respectively. If we postulate a T−γ dependence for αr, comparison with room temperature results yields γ = 0.57. The diffusion coefficient appears to increase strongly with temperature based upon an estimated zero field mobility for CO+in CO at 273 °K found in the literature.

A drift tube-mass spectrometer system employing Bradbury-Nielsen shutters has been used to measure the mobility of Li + ions in He at 294 and 80 K and Li + ions in Ar at 294 K. The E/N range used was 3 to 80 Td (1 Td == 10 - 21 Y cm2). The zero field reduced mobility for Li + in He was found to be 22�81�0�11 cm2 y-1 s-I at 294 K and 19�64�0�29 cm2 y-1 s-I at 80 K. The value for Li+ in Ar at 294 K is 4�66�0�22 cm2 y-1 s-I. The reduced zero field mobility for the cluster ion Li +. He in He at 80 K and low values of E/ N was found to be 14�84 � 0�22 cm2 y -I s - I. The equilibrium constant for the formation and dissociation of Li + . Ar cluster ions at 294 K was obtained by fitting to the variation of the measured mobility with gas number density at low E/N values. The value obtained, corresponding to thermal equilibrium at 294 K, was (4�0.5)xlO- 19 cm3 .
