We have performed spectroscopic measurements combining with the diode operation of [6,6]-phenyl C61 butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) for directly characterizing the nature of its n-carriers. The measurements in the visible region reveal that electrons for the n-carrier generation are primarily accommodated into the t1g and t1u levels. The measurements in the near-infrared region indicate that the n-carriers of the PCBM diode are delocalized compared to the PCBM anions in solution. We also show that the frequency-dependence of the spectroscopic signals can estimate the lifetime of the n-carriers in the PCBM diode (23 μs).
