Abstract

The photoconductivity of doped poly-N-epoxypropylcarbazole films in the absorption region of a cationic polymethine dye is observed to increase when the BF 4 ion is replaced by Cl and I. The effect of a magnetic field on the photoluminescence is investigated at room temperature. The photoconductivity is studied as a function of the electric field intensity and wavelength of light. The dependence of the photoconductivity on the nature of the anion can be explained by a change in the probability of intercombination conversion in ionic and electron-hole pairs.
