To shed a light on fundamental molecular functions of photoinduced charge conductions by organic photovoltaic materials, it is important to directly observe molecular geometries of the intermediate charges just after the photoinduced electron-transfer reactions. However, highly inhomogeneous molecular environments at the bulk heteojunction interfaces in the photoactive layers have prevented us from understanding the mechanism of the charge conductions. We have herein investigated orbital geometries, electronic couplings, and hole-dissociation dynamics of photo induced charge-separated (CS) states in a series of poly(3-hexylthiophene) fullerene linked dyads bridged by rigid oligo-p-phenylene spacers by using time-resolved EPR spectroscopy. It has been revealed that one-dimensional intramolecular hole-dissociations exothermically take place from localized holes in initial CS states, following bridge-mediated, photoinduced charge separations via triplet exciton diffusions in the conjugated polymer-backbones. This molecular wire property of the photoinduced charges in solution at room temperature demonstrates the potential utility of the covalently bridged polymer molecules applied for the molecular devices.
