The energy of the charge‐transfer state formed between electron‐donating and electronaccepting materials, a state that directly absorbs, largely determines the limit of the open‐circuit voltage in organic photovoltaic devices. This is described in work by Aram Amassian, Michael D. McGehee and co‐workers on page 6076.
