It is found that the incorporation of two electron-accepting moieties （BTz and IIG） into a polymer main chain to form A-A＇ polymer PIIG-BTz could lower highest occupied molecular orbital （HOMO） and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital （LUMO） levels and facilitate good molecular stacking of the polymer.
