Synergistic effects of fluorination and alkylthiolation on BDT moieties are discussed in detail, which is based on the superior balance between high Voc and large Jsc when PBDTT-SF-TT/PC71BM and PBDTT-SF-BDD/PC71BM solar cells present their high Voc as 1.00 and 0.97 V (associated with their deep highest occupied molecular orbital level of −5.54 and −5.61 eV), a moderately high Jsc of 14.79 and 14.70 mA cm−2, and thus result a high power conversion efficiency of 9.07% and 9.72%, respectively. Meanwhile, for PBDTT-SF-TT, a very low energy loss of 0.59 eV is pronounced, leading to the promisingly high voltage, and furthermore performance study and morphological results declare an additive-free PSC from PBDTT-SF-TT, which is beneficial to practical applications.
