Core engineering on fused-ring electron acceptors for high-efficiency OSCs is reviewed.

In this work, three dithieno[3,2-b:2′,3′-d]pyrrol fused-ring electron acceptors (IPT-2F, IPTT-2F, and IPTTT-2F) have been successfully developed as efficient asymmetric nonfullerene acceptors (NFAs) for organic solar cells (OSCs).

The accuracy of Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory in predicting the vertical absorption wavelength of 50 widely-used fused-ring electron acceptors (FREAs) has been investigated by considering the solvent effects.
