Donor-acceptor-acceptor (D-A-A) type 1,8-naphthalimides as non-fullerene small molecule acceptors for bulk heterojunction solar cells.

Donor-acceptor-acceptor (D-A-A) type 1,8-naphthalimide based small molecules SM1 and SM2 functionalized with tetracyanobutadiene (TCBD) and dicyanoquino-dimethane (DCNQ) modules, showing strong absorption in the visible and near-infrared (NIR) region are reported. TCBD and DCNQ linked SM1 and SM2 exhibit multi-redox waves. The electrochemical and optical HOMO-LUMO gaps show similar trends. Thes...
