    Abstract: Narrow bandgap n-type small molecules are attracting attention in the near-infrared organic optoelectronics field, due to their easy tunable energy band with a molecular design flexibility. However, only a few reports demonstrate narrow bandgap non-fullerene acceptors (NFAs) that perform well in organic solar cells (OSCs), and the corresponding benefits of NFA photodiodes have not been well investigated in organic photodetectors (OPDs). Here, the ultra-narrow bandgap NFAs CO1-4F, CO1-4Cl and o-IO1 were designed and synthesized for the achieved efficient near-infrared organic photodiodes such as solar cells and photodetectors. Designing an asymmetrical CO1-4F by introducing two different π-bridges including alkylthienyl and alkoxythienyl units ultimately provides an asymmetric A-D′-D-D″-A molecular configuration. This enables a delicate modulation in energy band structure as well as maintains an intense intramolecular charge transfer characteristic of the excited state.
