Abstract

A number of different systems using electrostatic self-assembly are studied. This technique is based on the sequential adsorption of positively and negatively charged molecules from dilute aqueous solutions to form multilayered polymeric films. The photovoltaic properties of self-assembled films of polyphenylene vinylene with a sulfonated derivative of C₆₀ fullerene are examined. It was shown that ESA can successfully be used for the creation of organic photovoltaic devices. Its ability to accurately control thickness and composition on the molecular level provides a level of refinement over conventional spin-coated systems.
