Synonyms
1-[3-(Methoxycarbonyl)propyl]-1-phenyl-[6.6]C61, 3′H-Cyclopropa[1,9] [5,6]fullerene-C60-Ih-3′-butanoic acid 3′-phenyl methyl ester, PCBM, [60]PCBM

General Description
(6,6)-Phenyl C61 butyric acid methyl ester ((60) PCBM) is a methanofullerene that has a better diffusion in organic molecules than fullerenes (C60). It has a high electron mobility which allows it to be used as an electron acceptor in major electrochemical applications.

Applications
(60)PCBM is an n-type semi-conductor widely used as an a electron transport material with low cost and high surface area in different energy based applications like organic photovoltaics, perovskite solar cells, field effect transistors and photodetectors.
Soluble n-channel organic semiconductor. For use as an n-type layer in plastic electronics, especially bulk heterojunction OFETs and photovoltaic cells (PVs).
