Excitonic coupling dominates the homogeneous photoluminescence excitation linewidth in semicrystalline polymeric semiconductors

Abstract:
We measure and model the homogeneous excitation linewidth of regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene), a model semicrystalline polymeric semiconductor, by means of two-dimensional coherent photoluminescence excitation spectroscopy. At a temperature of 8 K, we extract a linewidth of ∼ 90 meV full width at half maximum, which is a significant fraction of the total linewidth. We interpret this homogeneous broadening as a consequence of interchain exciton coupling and discuss it within the context of a weakly coupled aggregate model.
