Developing novel n-type organic semiconductors is an enduring research endeavour, given their pivotal roles in organic electronics and their relative scarcity compared to p-type counterparts. In this study, a new strategy was employed to synthesize n-type organic semiconductors featuring fully-fused conjugated backbone. By attaching two sets of adjacent amino and formyl groups to the indacenodithiophene-based central cores and triggering a tandem reaction of Knoevenagel condensation-intramolecular cyclization, DFA1 and DFA2 were realized. The solution-processed organic field effect transistors based on DFA1 exhibited unipolar n-type transport character with a decent electron mobility of ca. 0.10 cm2 V-1 s-1 (ca. 0.038 cm2 V-1 s-1 for DFA2 based devices). When employing DFA1 as a third component in organic solar cells, a high power conversion efficiency of 19.2% can be achieved in ternary devices fabricated with PM6:L8-BO:DFA1. This work paves a new pathway in the molecular engineering of n-type organic semiconductors, propelling relevant research forward.
