We report results on polarization-dependent photoinduced discharge in oriented fibers and films of ladder-type, electron-transporting polymer poly (benzimidazobenzophenanthroline), BBL. The photocarrier generation efficiency in the fiber which is indicated by the rate of discharge, is found to be distinctly higher for light polarized parallel to the fiber axis as compared to the radially perpendicular direction . Similar results, with photocarrier generation efficiency anisotropy ~ 10 are obtained for oriented films. These observations are different from previously obtained results on polyparaphenylenevinylene (PPV). The results are compared with the polarization-dependent steady- state photoconductivity measurements. We interpret these results on the basis of molecular and macroscopic features of the material.
