Anomalous advection-diffusion in two-dimensional semiconductor systems with coexisting energetic and structural disorder is described in the framework of a generalized model of multiple trapping on a comb-like structure. The basic equations of the model contain fractional-order derivatives. To validate the model, we compare analytical solutions with results of a Monte Carlo simulation of phonon-assisted tunneling in two-dimensional patterns of a porous nanoparticle agglomerate and a phase-separated bulk heterojunction. To elucidate the role of directed percolation, we calculate transient current curves of the time-of-flight experiment and the evolution of the mean squared displacement averaged over medium realizations. The variations of the anomalous advection-diffusion parameters as functions of electric field intensity, levels of energetic, and structural disorder are presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
