In this report, a series of copolymers based on 6-(2-thienyl)-4H-thieno[3,2-b]indole (TTI) as an electron-rich unit and fluorinated DTBT as an electron-deficient unit were synthesized, namely PTTIF1 and PTTIF2, and applied to photovoltaic devices. TTI unit was coupled with fluorinated DTBT to utilize the merit of introduction of fluorine atom leading to the lowering of the HOMO energy level while keeping high planarity of the conjugated backbone.The synthesized copolymers show a noticeable change in HOMO energy levels as compared with non-fluorinated polymer (PTTIDTBT-h). Optimized photovoltaic devices of PTTIF2 exhibited power conversion efficiency of 4.36% with decent JSC and FF values, which can be explained by the higher charge transporting ability of PTTIF2 with preferable face-on crystallite population than PTTIF1 in grazing incident wide-angle X-ray scattering (GIWAXS).
