An alternating polymer of two building blocks based on B←N unit: Non-fullerene acceptor for organic photovoltaics

B←N coordination bond can be used to develop polymer electron acceptors for efficient all-polymer solar cells (all-PSCs). Here, we report a new alternating conjugated polymer containing two building blocks based on B←N unit. The polymer exhibits strong light absorption in the visible range, low-lying LUMO/HOMO energy levels and moderate electron mobility. The resulting all-PSC devices exhibit power conversion efficiencies of 1.50%–2.47%.
