A systematic molecular design process from PBDTTT‐S to PBDTDTTT‐S‐T , a high‐performance semiconducting polymer for organic photovoltaics, has been achieved by enhancing structural order, self‐assembly and carrier mobility. Solar cells made from PBDTDTTT‐S‐T blended with PC 70 BM show a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 7.81%, which is 25% higher than that of the parent PBDTTT‐S .
