several compatibilizers, including end-capped poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and diblock copolymer have been synthesized.  The impact of the presence of these compatibilizers on the thermal properties, morphology, and phase structures of P3HT/[6,6]-Phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) (1:0.8) mixtures has been examined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and small angle neutron scattering (SANS).   The specific area and miscibility of amorphous PCBM in amorphous P3HT are determined for P3HT/PCBM blends.
