In the current work, dependent density functional theory and time-dependent density functional theory calculations coupled with the inherent charge hopping model and some visualization techniques have been used to systematically investigate the photovoltaic properties of PC<sub>61sub>BM-PDPP5T system. Calculations show that PC<sub>61sub>BM-PDPP5T system possesses the relatively large open-circuit voltage 0.82 V the middle-sized exciton binding energy (0.690 eV), the small internal reorganization energy (0.159 eV) in the exciton-dissociation process, but the relatively large one (0.396 eV) in the case of charge-recombination. With a simplified molecular model, the exciton-dissociation rate constant, k<sub>dissub>, is estimated to be as large as 1.156 × 10<sup>10sup> s<sup>−1sup> in PC<sub>61sub>BM-PDPP5T phase interface, while the charge-recombination one, k<sub>recsub>, is only 1.018 × 10<sup>7sup> s<sup>−1sup> under the same condition, which indicates a rapid and efficient photoinduced exciton-dissociation process.
