This SMA exhibits a relatively wide optical bandgap of 2.03 eV, which provides a complementary absorption to commonly used low bandgap donor polymers, such as PTB7‐Th. The strong electron‐deficient BT and RCN units afford SFBRCN with a low‐lying LUMO (lowest unoccupied molecular orbital) level, while the 3D structured spirobifluorene core can effectively suppress the self‐aggregation tendency of the SMA, thus yielding a polymer:SMA blend with reasonably small domain size. As the results of such molecular design, SFBRCN enables nonfullerene PSCs with a high efficiency of 10.26%, which is the highest performance reported to date for a large bandgap nonfullerene SMA.}, number={18}, journal={ADVANCED MATERIALS}, author={Zhang, Guangjun and Yang, Guofang and Yan, He and Kim, Joo-Hyun and Ade, Harald and Wu, Wenlin and Xu, Xiaopeng and Duan, Yuwei and Peng, Qiang}, year={2017}, month={May} }
