Abstract Asymmetric molecular engineering is utilized for developing efficient small molecular acceptors (SMAs), whereas adopting multiple asymmetric strategies at the terminals, side chains, and cores of efficient SMAs remains a challenge, and effects on reducing energy loss ( E loss ) have been rarely investigation. Herein, four regioregular multiple‐asymmetric SMAs ( DASe‐4F , DASe‐4Cl , TASe‐2Cl2F , and TASe‐2F2Cl ) are constructed by delicately manipulating the number and position of F and Cl on end groups. Triple‐asymmetric TASe‐2F2Cl not only exhibits a unique and most compact 3D network crystal stacking structure but also possesses excellent crystallinity and electron mobility in neat film. Surprisingly, the PM1 : TASe‐2F2Cl ‐based binary organic solar cells (OSCs) yield a champion power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of 19.32%, surpassing the PCE of 18.27%, 17.25%, and 16.30% for DASe‐4F , DASe‐4Cl , and TASe‐2Cl2F ‐based devices, which attributed to the optimized blend morphology with proper phase separation and more ordered intermolecular stacking and excellent charge transport. Notably, the champion PCE of 19.32% with ultralow nonradiative recombination energy loss (Δ E 3 ) of 0.179 eV marks a record‐breaking result for selenium‐containing SMAs in binary OSCs. Our innovative multiple‐asymmetric molecular engineering of precisely modulating the number and position of fluorinated/chlorinated end groups is an effective strategy for obtaining highly‐efficient and minimal Δ E 3 of selenium‐substituted SMAs‐based binary OSCs simultaneously.
