ATT-01

A thieno[3,4-b]thiophene-based electron acceptor, ATT-1, is designed and synthesized. ATT-1 exhibits a planar conjugated framework, broad absorption with a large absorption coefficient, and a slightly high LUMO energy level. Bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) solar cells based on PTB7-Th electron donor and ATT-1 electron acceptor delivered power conversion efficiencies of up to 10.07%, which is among the best performances reported for non-fullerene BHJ solar cells using PTB7-Th as the electron donor.
