Aggregated polymer fillers, such as carbon black and silica, at concentrations above the percolation threshold form an emergent structure, the hierarchical filler network, in immiscible systems where dispersion is driven by accumulated strain. It is

The adsorption of polymers on smooth or atomistically flat substrates has been a topic of study for decades, and such systems are well-characterized. However, there is little knowledge of the complex interfaces created by adsorption on heterogeneous

Dispersion in polymer nanocomposites is determined by the kinetics of mixing and chemical affinity. Compounds like reinforcing filler/elastomer blends display some similarity to colloidal solutions in that the filler particles are close to randomly d

This study investigates the structure of films spin-coated from blends of the semiconducting polymers poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl) (P3HT) and poly{2,6-[4,4-bis-(2-ethylhexyl)-4H-cyclopenta[2,1-b;3,4-b′]dithiophene]-alt-4,7(2,1,3-benzothiadiazole

The fractal structure of ceramic aggregates has been widely studied in terms of the mass fractal dimension and primary particle size. However, there has not yet been a quantitative description of the branched topology in these structures. In this wor

Solar cells fabricated from a blend of the conjugated polymers poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene-co-benzothiadiazole) (F8BT) demonstrate a substantial improvement in power conversion efficiency ( η ) upon the addition of pri

Kinetically mixed reinforcing fillers are dispersed by accumulated strain. Processing conditions such as mixing geometry, intensity and the duration of mixing are key elements on controlling accumulated strain. A simple method to modify mechanical mi

We investigate organic bulk heterojunction (BHJ) devices that employ graphene nanosheets in the active layer. Solar cells based on P3HT:PCBM:graphene show device physics significantly different from traditional BHJs, and display a monotonic increase

The behavior of short oligothiophene molecules in the presence of a fullerene surface have been investigated via fully atomistic molecular dynamics studies. The simulations mimic the hybrid assemblies characteristic of bulk heterojunction structures
