6,7-Dialkoxy-2,3-diphenylquinoxaline based narrow band gap conjugated polymers, poly[2,7-(9-octyl-9H- carbazole)-alt-5,5-(5,8-di-2-thinenyl-(6,7-dialkoxy-2,3-diphenylquinoxaline))] (PCDTQ) and poly[2,7-(9,9-dioctylfluorene)- alt-5,5-(5,8-di-2-thinenyl-(6,7-dialkoxy-2,3-diphenylquinoxaline))] (PFDTQ), have been synthesized by Suzuki polycondensation. Their optical, electrochemical, transport and photovoltaic properties have been investigated in detail. Hole mobilities of PCDTQ and PFDTQ films spin coated from 1,2-dichlorobenzene (DCB) solutions are 1.0 X 10-4 and 4.1 X 10-4 cm2 V-1 s-l, respectively. Polymer solar cells were fabricated with the as-synthesized polymers as the donor and PC61BM and PC7 IBM as the acceptor. Devices based on PCDTQ:PC71BM (1:3) and PFDTQ:PC7 IBM (1:3) fabricated from DCB solutions demonstrated a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 2.5% with a Voc of 0.95 V and a PCE of 2.5% with a Voof 0.98 V, respectively, indicating they are promising donor materials.
