The hole mobility /u-h in OCiCio-PPV is 5 x 10-11 m2/V s. The electron mobility /xe in PCBM is 2 x 10-7 m2/V s. However, the transport of separate charge carriers in an interpenetrating network may be different than the transport in the individual compounds. In Ref. [65] the transport and injection of charge carriers in OCiCio-PPV PCBM bulk-heterojunction diodes are investigated.
