We present external quantum efficiency (EQE) studies of P3HT:PCBM based bulk heterojunction polymer solar cells with improved intensity resolution in the sub-bandgap (SBG) region, i.e. the energy range below the optical bandgaps of the pristine materials. Varying the P3HT:PCBM blending ratio, we find that in addition to a Gaussian profile an exponential tail is needed for a quantitative description of the SBG EQE spectra. To gain insights into the origin of the single contributions, absorption and emission spectra covering several decades of intensity and SBG EQE signals are discussed in detail.
