A series of tetrafluorine-substituted small molecules with a D-1-A-D-2-A-D-1 linear framework based on indacenodithiophene and difluorobenzothiadiazole is designed and synthesized for application as donor materials in solution-processed small-molecule organic solar cells. The impacts of thiophene -bridge and multiple fluorinated modules on the photophysical properties, the energy levels of the highest occupied molecular orbitals (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (LUMO), charge carrier mobility, the morphologies of blend films, and their photovoltaic properties as electron donor material in the photoactive layer are investigated. By incorporating multiple fluorine substituents of benzothiadiazole and inserting two thiophene spacers, the fill factor (FF), open-circuit voltage, and short-circuit current density are dramatically improved in comparison with fluorinated-free materials. With the solvent vapor annealing treatment, further enhancement in charge carrier mobility and power conversion efficiency (PCE) are achieved. Finally, a high PCE of 8.1% with very-high FF of 0.76 for BIT-4F-T/PC71BM is achieved without additional additive, which is among one of the highest reported for small-molecules-based solar cells with PCE over 8%. The results reported here clearly indicate that high PCE in solar cells based small molecules can be significantly increased through careful engineering of the molecular structure and optimization on the morphology of blend films by solvent vapor annealing.
