We report results of cw- and transient ESR investigations on mixtures of P3
OT (poly-3-octylthiophene) and C-60 in solution. In pristine C-60 solutions
with xylene or ODCB (ortho-dichlorobenzene) as solvent the dominant LESR s
ignal is the C-60 triplet. In solutions of P3OT and C60 in xylene a change
of the decay dynamics of the C-60 triplet state is observed. Photoinduced C
-60. has not been observed in the investigated solutions.
