Narrow-bandgap polymer semiconductors are essential for advancing the development of organic solar cells. Here, a new narrow-bandgap acceptor L14, featuring an acceptor-acceptor (A-A) type backbone, is synthesized by copolymerizing dibrominated fused-ring electron (FREA) with distannylated bithiophene imide. Combining advantages both FREA and A-A polymer, L14 not only shows narrow bandgap high absorption coefficient, but also low-lying frontier molecular orbital (FMO) levels. Such FMO levels...
