A thiophene flanked by strong electron-withdrawing octylrhodanines, T-ORH, was developed as a non-fullerene acceptor (NFA) for organic solar cells (OSCs), and to the best of our knowledge, this is the simplest NFA reported thus far. T-ORH was synthesized in two steps and exhibited sufficient energylevel offsets with poly[4,8-bis(5-(2-ethylhexyl)thiophen-2-yl)-benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b']dithiophene-co-3-fluorothieno[3,4-b]thiophene-2-carboxylate]. The OSCs exhibited power conversion efficiencies of 1.25% with the open-circuit voltages of 0.9V irrespective of additional treatment.
