• evaporation, average mobilities of 14.20 ± 2.55 cm2 V−1 s−1, with a maximum value of 17.2 cm2 V−1 s−1 were achieved. In recent years, fused thiophene molecules also achieved outstanding performances in OPVs. This was especially driven by recent developments in non-fullerene acceptors (NFA) [29]. One prominent
