| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated transport properties of optically injected carriers in a high-mobility organic semiconductor, rubrene crystal, in comparison to those in non-organic semiconductors, with the aim of demonstrating the band transport mechanism in the organic system. First, we confirmed that optical carrier injection is established by the dissociation of excitons induced by electric field, based on an observation of anti-correlation between exciton luminescence and photocurrent. In contract, we found that all optical carrier injection pathways via (i) the band-to-band transition and (ii) exciton dissociation in pure silicon and diamond crystals. Second, we performed the time-resolved cyclotron resonance measurement for carriers generated by two-photon excitation in rubrene crystals. A spectrum observed at 2.5 K indicated a peak centered at the effective mass of 0.23 m0, but the value was still unreliable because of the puzzling dependence on temperature and crystal orientation.
