title: PS-b-P3HT copolymers as P3HT/PCBM interfacial compatibilizers for high efficiency photovoltaics.
abstract: A conducting diblock copolymer of PS-b-P3HT was added to serve as a compatibilizer in a P3HT/PCBM blend, which improved the power-conversion efficiency from 3.3% to 4.1% due to the enhanced crystallinity, morphology, interface interaction, and depth profile of PCBM.
