Poly(3-hexyl thiophene) (P3HT) can be easily synthesized, demonstrating the large potential to decrease cost in large-scale synthesis. Thus, development of novel non-fullerene acceptor match well with P3HT is urgent and necessary. The first benzotriazole-containing designed high open-circuit voltage (V oc) 1.02 V, fill factor (FF) 0.70, power conversion efficiency (PCE) 5.24% are realized, which remarkably higher than that P3HT: [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PC61BM) system oc =...

Side-chain tailoring is a promising method to optimize the performance of organic solar cells (OSCs). However, asymmetric alkyl chain-based small molecular acceptors (SMAs) are still difficult afford. Herein, we adopted novel n-nonyl/undecyl substitution strategy and synthesized two A-D1 A'D2 -A double isomeric SMAs with selenophene-based central core for OSCs. Crystallographic analysis indicates that AYT9Se11-Cl forms more compact order intermolecular packing compared AYT11Se9-Cl, which...
