The oligobenzodithiophene derivative exhibits an absorption band from 300 to 640 nm. The film of DRBDT3 shows highly long-range ordering assembly and high mobility of 1.21×10^-4 cm^2 V^-1 s^-1. The new molecule shows a deep highest-occupied molecular orbital energy level. The device based on DRBDT3 as the donor and PC71BM as the acceptor exhibits a power conversion efficiency of 4.09% with a high open-circuit voltage of 0.99 V under AM. 1.5G illumination (100 mW cm^-2).展开更多
