abstract = {Solution-based processing procedures are widely used during
the fabrication of polymer solar cells both on the lab scale
and in industrial applications. The understanding of device
stability in its host solvent vapor atmosphere is of great
significance to the fabrication, encapsulation and storage.
Solar cells with poly(3-hexylthiophene):[6,6]-phenyl-C61
butyric acid methyl ester (P3HT:PCBM) bulk heterojunction
(BHJ) active layers are prepared with different solvents of
chlorobenzene, toluene, xylene and dichlorobenzene. The
stability is investigated via exposure to their respective
host solvent vapor for a long period. All solar cells
strongly degrade after exposure to solvent vapor for
long-term and only the dichlorobenzene-related device still
shows reasonable function. The morphology of P3HT:PCBM BHJ
films is probed using optical microscopy, atomic force
microscopy, grazing incidence small and wide angle X-ray
scattering and absorption measurements. The solvent induced
PCBM crystallization is identified as the main reason for
device failure.},
