Three star-shaped D-A small molecules, (P-DPP)(3)TPA, (4-FP-DPP)(3)TPA, and (4-BuP-DPP)(3)TPA were designed and synthesized with triphenylamine (TPA) as the core, diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) as the arm, and unsubstituted or substituted benzene rings (phenyl, P; 4-fluoro-phenyl, 4-FP; 4-n-butyl-phenyl, 4-BuP) as the end-group. All the three small molecules show relatively narrow optical band gaps (1.68-1.72 eV) and low-lying highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy levels (-5.09∼-5.13 eV), implying that they are potentially good electron donors for organic solar cells (OSCs). Then, photovoltaic properties of the small molecules blended with [6,6]-phenyl-C(61)-butyric acid methyl ester (PC(61)BM) as electron acceptor were investigated. Among three small molecules, the OSC based on (P-DPP)(3)TPA:PCBM blend exhibits a best power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 2.98% with an open-circuit voltage (V(oc)) of 0.72 V, a short-circuit current density (J(sc)) of 7.94 mA/cm(2), and a fill factor (FF) of 52.2%, which may be ascribed to the highest hole mobility of (P-DPP)(3)TPA.
