A systematic study on the design of fulleropyrrolidine derivatives as the acceptor of photovoltaic cells has been carried out using poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) as the model base polymer. It was found that N-methoxyethoxyethyl-2-(2-methoxyphenyl)fulleropyrrolidine worked as a good acceptor partner with P3HT and a high power conversion efficiency (PCE) (3.44%) was obtained; this is superior to that of the P3HT polymer including methyl [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butylate ([C60]-PCBM) under the same experimental conditions.
