Photogeneration transient photocurrent techniques

While transient photocurrent and photoinduced discharge techniques are the conventional methods for measuring photogeneration efficiencies, these cannot be readily employed in the presence of trapping. A further limitation is that it is difficult to separate the field dependence of the photogeneration process from field dependencies associated with an injection or interfacial process (Seki, 1970, 1972a). As such, it is difficult to apply the method to dispersions or two-phase materials. Experimental methods that may avoid these limitations are...
