abstract = {Transient photovoltage (TPV) measurements are frequently
used to study recombination processes in thin‐film solar
cells by probing the decay of a small optically induced
voltage perturbation to infer the charge carrier dynamics of
devices at open circuit. However, the validity of this
method to probe organic semiconductors has recently come
into doubt due to large discrepancies in the reported
carrier lifetime values for the same systems and the
reporting of unrealistic reaction order values. Herein, the
validity of TPV to extract reliable charge carrier lifetimes
in thin‐film solar cells is explored through the use of
time‐dependent drift‐diffusion simulations and
measurements. It is found that in low‐mobility materials,
TPV serves primarily as a probe of charge carrier
redistribution in the bulk rather than bulk recombination
dynamics and that the extracted time constant is highly
mobility dependent. To address this shortcoming, transient
photocharge, a new technique to measure the charge carrier
density during photovoltage decay, is introduced and applied
to study the recombination dynamics in a series of
(fullerene and nonfullerene) organic solar cell systems. It
is shown that using this technique the charge carrier
recombination lifetime in the active layer is more
accurately determined.},
