One is an active layer formed by sexithiophene (6T) and C60 molecules which don’t have side chains. Another one is an active layer formed by a,ω-bis(2-hexyldecyl)sexithiophene (BHD6T) and [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) molecules which have side chains. The 6T:C60 active layer exhibited an excessive crystallization of 6T, which led to the low photovoltaic performance. In the BHD6T:PCBM active layer, the crystallization of BHD6T was suppressed.
