Abstract: 

The influence of interface modifires based on perylen imide dyes and naphthyl phosphonic acid on MEH-PPV/nc-ZnO nanocomposite films morphology was stydied. The better phase compatibility between MEH-PPV and nc-ZnO was obtained if (PI1) and (PI2) were used as the IMs. Use of the IMs led to decrease the fluorescence lifetime quenching (τ1) and to increase the quenching efficiencies (ηq). It was demonstrated that all IMs increase JSC and VOC.
