Management of alpha-sexithiophene (6T) molecular orientation is a key issue to improve the performance of organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices based on 6T thin films, which act as p-type semiconductor layers; however, it is difficult to produce 6T layers with the molecules lying on smooth surfaces, including oxide covered substrates. We have succeeded in orienting the 6T molecules on oriented conductive polythiophene (PT) films, parallel to the oriented PT molecular axis; i.e. parallel to the substrate, by evaporating 6T in vacuum. Here, we reported planar heterojunction (PHJ) OPV devices consisting of 6T films with molecular orientation parallel to the substrate. The orientation of 6T led to improvement of the power conversion efficiency (PCE) in these PHJ OPVs. The average PCE of PHJ OPVs with oriented PT was 2.8 times higher than that without PT. The PCE and the maximum value of the short-circuit photocurrent action spectra of the OPV with the PT was larger under irradiation of polarized light parallel to the 6T molecular axis than that orthogonal to the axis. On the other hand, the PCE and the action spectra of the OPV without the PT did not show the response to polarized light. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
