With their great electrical and optical properties and ease of fabrication process using their solutions, semiconducting polymers have been attracting considerable attention for applications in various organic electronic devices such as organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), field-effect transistors (OFETs), and solar cells from both academics and industries.[1] Of particular interest today is bulk heterojunction (BHJ) solar cells using donor–acceptor semiconducting polymers as the photoactive layer materials together with fullerene-based molecules,[2] where the power conversion efficiency (PCE) has recently reached> 7%.[3] They thus offer great opportunities as new renewable energy sources with light weight and flexibility that differentiates them from conventional inorganic solar cell technologies.[4] A key to developing high performance semiconducting polymers is to achieve strong π-π stacking structures that determines the transport property of generated charge carriers in the BHJ film.[5] Therefore the incorporation of π-cores that ensure strong intermolecular interactions with the polymer backbone is an important design strategy. Recently, Osaka, McCullough, and co-workers have reported on the development of a series of donor-acceptor polymers bearing thiazolothiazole (TzTz) as an acceptor unit in the electron-rich polythiophene backbone (Figure 2-1).[5]
