Based on donor-acceptor configuration and quinoid structure bandgap reduction strategies, as well as addition of a long alkyl chain to improve solubility, 5 low bandgap polymers have been synthesized and characterized, of which, 3 novel polymer donors, Poly(BBTa2,6F), Poly(BBTa1,6F) and Poly(BBTa1,5...
