Exciton dissociation at semiconductor interfaces is one of key processes to generate electron and hole free carriers in various organic solar-cell systems. In this work, we study the quantum processes of exciton dissociation at organic interfaces, by using one/two-dimensional tight-binding model and calculating time-evolution of electron-hole-pair wave packet, and discuss the effects of interface energy-level (HOMO/LUMO) offset, interface disorders, and electron-phonon interaction.
