Although diffusion of fullerenes in blend or bilayer heterostructures has a strong impact on the efficiency and long-term stability of organic solar cells and other organic electronic devices, little is known about the diffusion coefficient of fullerenes in different materials. We have recently shown that the C60 diffusion in the high bandgap homopolymer polyfluorene can be reduced by a factor of 1000 by crosslinking the polymer. We have now extended our approach to the low bandgap copolymer PCDTBT. We study how crosslinking PCDTBT suppresses the diffusion of C60 into it compared to inserting a LiF layer between the PCDTBT and the C60.
