Poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT)-fullerene blends are promising candidates for stretchable photovoltaics, which require materials that can endure repeated mechanical deformations. Understanding the cyclic tensile behaviour of these materials is essential for their application. Recent research has highl...
