    Thienothiophene (TT) has received great attention in the fields of electronics and optoelectronics. Here we report a synthesis and characterization of fullerene-donor-fullerene triads linked to thieno[2,3-b]thio- phene as a donor. The photophysical and electrochemical properties of the new dumbbells were investi- gated using UV-vis spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and square wave vol- tammetry. The results showed that both compounds have higher LUMO energy levels than PC61BM, indi- cating that they can be used in photovoltaic applications. Furthermore, the powder was structurally and morphologically characterized via X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The SEM revealed the morphological characterization of the two derivatives as globular and urchin-like supra- molecular assemblies.
