What is Importance of High‐Electron Mobility in Polymer Acceptors for Efficient All‐Polymer Solar Cells: Combined Engineering of Backbone Building Unit and Regioregularity about?

## Abstract The charge transport ability of polymer acceptors (P~A~s) is crucial for achieving high power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of all‐polymer solar cells (all‐PSCs). However, the electron mobilities (μ~e~s) of most P~A~s are inferior to those of their small molecule acceptor (SMA) counterparts. Herein, the authors design a new series of the polymerized SMA‐based P~A~s (Y5‐A‐B), where the donating moiety (A = selenophene (Se)/biselenophene (BiSe)) and the backbone regioregularity (B = In/Mix/Out) are 2D controlled, for enhancing both the μ~e~ and PCEs. Interestingly, the effects of regioisomers on the μ~e~ and all‐PSC performance are the opposite depending on the donating unit. For the Y5‐Se‐based P~A~s, the PCEs increase in order of Out (7.52%) < Mix (9.33%) Mix (9.58%) > In (8.52%). These opposite trends in each series originate from the different planarity and intermolecular assembly of P~A~s depending on the regioregularity. Thus, the Y5‐Se‐In blend exhibits the highest μ~e~ and achieves the highest PCE (13.38%) among the all‐PSCs in this study. Therefore, the authors report the importance of simultaneous engineering of the backbone building unit and regioregularity
