dc.descriptionSingle-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) show high aspect ratio, thermal and chemical stability as well as charge mobility, and therefore appear ideally suited for improving charge extraction in organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices. Since typical charge extraction times in OPV devices are in the microsecond range, the interplay of the desired charged states with long-lived neutral states in SWNTs such as triplet excitons becomes important. Triplet excitons have recently been investigated in (6,5) SWNTs with an optical yield close to 32%. Here, we present transient absorption (TA) dynamics of (6,5)- and (7,5)-rich SWNT networks from the femtosecond to microsecond time scale. Comparing our TA spectra to results from a recent spectroelectrochemical study allows us to distinguish between contributions from charged and neutral photoexcitations. For long pump–probe delay times we identify an excess photobleach which we use as a chirality specific probe for the density of triplet excitons. We show that triplet energ...
