We conducted replications of 100 experimental and correlational studies published in three psychology journals using high-powered designs and original materials when available. Replication effects were half the magnitude of original effects, representing a substantial decline. Ninety-seven percent of original studies had statistically significant results. Thirty-six percent of replications had statistically significant results; 47\% of original effect sizes were in the 95\% confidence interval of the replication effect size; 39\% of effects were subjectively rated to have replicated the original result; and if no bias in original results is assumed, combining original and replication results left 68\% with statistically significant effects. Correlational tests suggest that replication success was better predicted by the strength of original evidence than by characteristics of the original and replication teams.}, language = {en} } @article{VandewalBenduhnSchellhammeretal.2017, author = {Vandewal, Koen and Benduhn, Johannes and Schellhammer, Karl Sebastian and Vangerven, Tim and R{\"u}ckert, Janna E. and Piersimoni, Fortunato and Scholz, Reinhard and Zeika, Olaf and Fan, Yeli and Barlow, Stephen and Neher, Dieter and Marder, Seth R. and Manca, Jean and Spoltore, Donato and Cuniberti, Gianaurelio and Ortmann, Frank}, title = {Absorption Tails of Donor}, series = {Journal of the American Chemical Society}, volume = {139}, journal = {Journal of the American Chemical Society}, number = {4}, publisher = {American Chemical Society}, address = {Washington}, issn = {0002-7863}, doi = {10.1021/jacs.6b12857}, pages = {1699 -- 1704}, year = {2017}, abstract = {In disordered organic semiconductors, the transfer of a rather localized charge carrier from one site to another triggers a deformation of the molecular structure quantified by the intramolecular relaxation energy. A similar structural relaxation occurs upon population of intermolecular charge-transfer (CT) states formed at organic electron donor (D)-acceptor (A) interfaces. Weak CT absorption bands for D A complexes occur at photon energies below the optical gaps of both the donors and the C-60 acceptor as a result of optical transitions from the neutral ground state to the ionic CT state. In this work, we show that temperature-activated intramolecular vibrations of the ground state play a major role in determining the line shape of such CT absorption bands. This allows us to extract values for the relaxation energy related to the geometry change from neutral to ionic CT complexes. Experimental values for the relaxation energies of 20 D:C-60 CT complexes correlate with values calculated within density functional theory. These results provide an experimental method for determining the polaron relaxation energy in solid-state organic D-A blends and show the importance of a reduced relaxation energy, which we introduce to characterize thermally activated CT processes.}, language = {en} } @article{FangHolzmuellerMatulaitisetal.2016, author = {Fang, Lijia and Holzmueller, Felix and Matulaitis, Tomas and Baasner, Anne and Hauenstein, Christoph and Benduhn, Johannes and Schwarze, Martin and Petrich, Annett and Piersimoni, Fortunato and Scholz, Reinhard and Zeika, Olaf and Koerner, Christian and Neher, Dieter and Vandewal, Koen and Leo, Karl}, title = {Fluorine-containing low-energy-gap organic dyes with low voltage losses for organic solar cells}, series = {Synthetic metals : the journal of electronic polymers and electronic molecular materials}, volume = {222}, journal = {Synthetic metals : the journal of electronic polymers and electronic molecular materials}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Lausanne}, issn = {0379-6779}, doi = {10.1016/j.synthmet.2016.10.025}, pages = {232 -- 239}, year = {2016}, abstract = {Fluorine-containing donor molecules TFTF, CNTF and PRTF are designed and isomer selectively synthesized for application in vacuum-deposited organic solar cells. These molecules comprise a donor acceptor molecular architecture incorporating thiophene and benzothiadiazole derivatives as the electron-donating and electron-withdrawing moieties, respectively. As opposed to previously reported materials from this class, PRTF can be purified by vacuum sublimation at moderate to high yields because of its higher volatility and better stabilization due to a stronger intramolecular hydrogen bond, as compared to TFTF and CNTF. The UV-vis absorption spectra of the three donors show an intense broadband absorption between 500 nm and 800 nm with, similar positions of their frontier energy levels. The photophysical properties of the three donor molecules are thoroughly tested and optimized in bulk heterojunction solar cells with C-60 as acceptor. PRTF shows the best performance, yielding power conversion efficiencies of up to 3.8\%. Moreover, the voltage loss for the PRTF device due to the non radiative recombination of free charge carriers is exceptionally low (0.26 V) as compared to typical values for organic solar cells (>0.34V).

Ionisation energy and electron affinity values of thin films are, however, sensitive to film morphology and composition, making their prediction challenging. In a combined experimental and simulation study on zinc-phthalocyanine and its fluorinated derivatives, we show that changes in ionisation energy as a function of molecular orientation in neat films or mixing ratio in blends are proportional to the molecular quadrupole component along the p-p-stacking direction. We apply these findings to organic solar cells and demonstrate how the electrostatic interactions can be tuned to optimise the energy of the charge-transfer state at the donor-acceptor interface and the dissociation barrier for free charge carrier generation. The confirmation of the correlation between interfacial energies and quadrupole moments for other materials indicates its relevance for small molecules and polymers.}, language = {en} }
