Photoemission investigation on copper phthalocyanine:fullerene blend film
View through CrossRef
The electronic structure of thin blend films composed by copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) and fullerene (C60) have been studied by soft x-ray photoemission spectroscopy. Several samples with different C60∕CuPc concentration ratios were prepared by thermal evaporation in ultrahigh vacuum conditions. As the C60 concentration increases, strong shifts of the CuPc highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) level towards the Fermi level and of the C60 HOMO level to higher binding energies have been observed. This experimental result suggests that there is a sizeable interaction between CuPc and C60 molecules that can be interpreted in terms of a charge transfer from C60 to CuPc. These shifts play an important role in the application of the CuPc:C60 blend films for instance in the construction of solar cells on flexible substrates.
