abstract = {The ultrafast dynamics of photon-to-charge conversion in an
organic light-harvesting system is studied by femtosecond
time-resolved X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (TR-XPS) at
the free-electron laser FLASH. This novel experimental
technique provides site-specific information about charge
separation and enables the monitoring of free charge carrier
generation dynamics on their natural timescale, here applied
to the model donor-acceptor system CuPc:C$_{60}$. A
previously unobserved channel for exciton dissociation into
mobile charge carriers is identified, providing the first
direct, real-time characterization of the timescale and
efficiency of charge generation from low-energy
charge-transfer states in an organic heterojunction. The
findings give strong support to the emerging realization
that charge separation even from energetically disfavored
excitonic states is contributing significantly, indicating
new options for light harvesting in organic
heterojunctions.},
