A fused-ring electron acceptor IDT-2BR1 based on indacenodithiophene core with hexyl side-chains flanked by benzothiadiazole rhodanine was designed and synthesized. In comparison with its counterpart with hexylphenyl side-chains (IDT-2BR), IDT-2BR1 exhibits higher highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy but similar lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy (IDT-2BR1: HOMO=-5.37 eV, LUMO=-3.67 eV; IDT-2BR: HOMO=-5.52 eV, LUMO=-3.69 eV), red-shifted absorption and narrower bandgap. IDT-2BR1 has higher electron mobility (2.2x10(-3) cm(2) V-1 s(-1)) than IDT-2BR (3.4x10(-4) cm(2) V-1 s(-1)) due to the reduced steric hindrance and ordered molecular packing. Fullerene-free organic solar cells based on PTB7-Th:IDT-2BR1 yield power conversion efficiencies up to 8.7%, higher than that of PTB7-Th:IDT-2BR (7.7%), with a high open circuit voltage of 0.95 V and good device stability.
