Abstract
We report on insoluble and nanostructured layers of cross-linkable photo-active polymers as the electron-donor component in organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells. We demonstrate the effect of structuring dimensions on OPV cells performance where the electron-acceptor is a soluble fullerene. Time-resolved fluorescence studies on the donor/acceptor nanostructured layers are also presented.
