Front Cover : In the article number 2100136, Marina Tepliakova and co‐workers present a novel isoindigo‐based conjugated polymer synthesized following two approaches: Stille and Suzuki polycondensations. Photovoltaic devices incorporating the material obtained using the Stille reaction possess higher efficiencies due to the lower density of radical impurities in comparison with the polymer obtained by the Suzuki reaction, thus underlining the importance of the synthetic pathway choice for material quality.
