We report measurements of the photovoltaic response of two-layer photocells formed with layers of the conjugated polymer poly(phenylenevinylene), PPV and fullerene, C60, formed between indium-tin oxide and aluminum electrodes. Peak quantum efficiencies of up to ∼9% (electrons collected per incident photon) were measured under short-circuit conditions. We model the photovoltaic response as arising from excitons photogenerated in the PPV layer which are able to diffuse to the interface with the C60 layer where they are ionized. We obtain a value for the exciton diffusion range of 7±1 nm, both from the spectral response and from the absolute efficiency. We demonstrate that the branching ratio for the creation of singlet excitons from absorbed photons is close to unity. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.
