Two simple electron acceptors based on unfused bithiophene core and 1,1-dicyanomethylene-3-indanone end group were easily prepared via three synthetic steps. These acceptors exhibited broad absorption in the range of 300 nm to 800 nm, aligned energy levels and high crystallinity. When combined with a wide band gap donor polymer in non-fullerene solar cells, an initial power conversion efficiency of 2.4% was achieved. The relatively low efficiencies were due to the large phase separation in blended thin films, which is originated from their high aggregation tendency in thin films. Our results suggest that these electron acceptors with unfused core are promising candidates for com. application of solar cells due to the low cost starting materials and facile synthesis.
