Table 2. Internal quantum efficiency (ΦIQ), carrier formation efficiency (ΦCF), carrier transfer efficiency (ΦCT = ΦIQCF), and fullerene mixing (ΦFullerene) within the polymer matrix of OSCs based on films of F8T2/PC71BM (33 : 67 wt%) blend annealed for 10 min at Tan. The error bars of ΦCF were roughly evaluated from the signal/noise ratio of the femtosecond time-resolved spectra. ΦFullerene was evaluated by least-squares fitting of the observed spectra (φexp) with the linear combination of the F8T2 (φD) and PC71BM (φA) spectra, φcal = CDφD + CAφA. The averages and standard deviations of CD and CA were evaluated from ten φexp spectra at every Tan. The ΦFullerene values were calculated by CA/(CD + CA).
