Semiconducting conjugated polymers exhibit promising properties for applications in optoelectronic devices such as organic photovoltaic cells. Poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and other poly- and oligothiophenes are auspicious electron donor materials due to their high charge carrier mobility. In this study thin films of semi crystalline P3HT with different degree of crystallinity [1] have been investigated by means of time- and angle-resolved two-photon photoemission (2PPE). We observed several unoccupied and occupied electronic states (bands) including the valence and conduction band. In addition two excited states are found which possess lifetimes in the order of hundred picoseconds.
