Several bis‐cinnoline derivatives were found to act as a new class of n‐type amorphous organic material. They exhibit high electron‐drift mobility up to the order of 10 −3 cm 2 V −1 s −1 and high thermal stability, and therefore are useful as a cathode buffer layer in thin‐layer organic solar cells.
