Enhanced Photovoltaic Performance of Asymmetrical Benzo Dithiophene Homopolymer Donor Materials in Nonfullerene Acceptor-Based Organic Photovoltaics.

ABSTRACT: Although much promising synthetic progress in conjugated polymer-based organic solar cells (OSCs) has resulted in significant improvement in power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of from over 15 to >19.0% in the last five years, the sophisticated and complex reactions from at least two families' monomers with remarkably different electron push-pull effects could still pose an unavoidable material burden for the commercialization of OSCs in the coming future. Therefore, the method of preparing a homopolymer from a sole monomer would significantly reduce the synthetic steps and costs in order to pave the way for the large-scale production of OSC materials. Therefore, alkylthio-thiophenyl-substituted benzo[1,2-b;4,5-b']dithiophene (BDTTS) as the sole and key structural moiety with dihalogen an
