Comment on "Validity of Einstein Relation in Disordered Organic
Semiconductors"
   [PDF]

Ling Li, Shibing Long, Ming Liu
Wetzelaer, Koster, and Blom [PRL 107, 066605] recently observed that the classic Einstein relation $\frac{D}{\mu}=\frac{kT}{q}$ is still valid in disordered semiconductors in thermal(quasi)equilibrium by studying the diffusion-driven currents of single-carrier diodes. This is in contrast to the previous theoretical prediction [2] and experiment observation from Leo et.al. [3] where the Einstein relation increases with 1/T. We will discuss the reason for this discrepancy here and suggest that one-carrier diodes experiment might nor be suitable for verifying Einstein relation in organic semiconductors.
