    Notes: We report the results of light scattering, absorption, excitation, and emission spectroscopy of three polyphenylene vinylene (PPV) derivatives; poly[2-methoxy, 5-(2'-ethyl-hexyloxy-p-phenylene- vinylene] (MEH-PPV), poly[2-butoxy, 5-(2'-ethyl-hexyloxy-p-phenylene-vinylene] (BEH-PPV), and poly[2-dicholestanoxy-p-phenylene-vinylene] (BCHA-PPV) in solution with p-xylene. We find that increasing the size of the solubilizing side chains increases the intrinsic persistence length of the polyphenylene vinylene backbone and that this change in stiffness has dramatic effects on the photoluminescence of polyphenylene vinylene. We have determined the luminescence quantum efficiencies of the polyphenylene vinylene derivatives relative to a known standard, Rhodamine 6G, and find that the photoluminescence can be greatly enhanced by increasing the intrinsic stiffness of the polymer backbone. The stiffest polymer, poly[2-dicholestanoxy-p-phenylene-vinylene] (BCHA-PPV), has a quantum efficiency of 0.66±0.05. The quantum efficiency decreases to 0.22±0.05 for poly[2-butoxy, 5-(2'-ethyl-hexyloxy-p-phenylene-vinylene] (BEH-PPV) and 0.20±0.05 for poly[2-methoxy, 5-(2'-ethyl-hexyloxy-p-phenylene-vinylene] (MEH-PPV), the most coiled derivative. Excitation profiles of the three derivatives also show an increase in nonradiative decay at high energies when the polymer assumes a more coiled comformation. Thus, the quantum yields are dependent on pump energy.

    Notes: We report visible light emission from diodes made from poly(3-octylthiophene). Use of a soluble derivative of polythiophene allows fabrication of the light emitting diodes by casting the polymer film from solution with no subsequent processing or heat treatment required. The devices emit dim red-orange light with relatively low external quantum efficiencies, below 2.5×10−5 photons per electron at room temperature. Electrical characterization reveals diode behavior with rectification ratios greater than 102. The temperature dependence indicates that tunneling phenomena dominate the charge injection.

    Notes: We report the effect of conversion conditions on the device characteristics of poly(p-phenylene vinylene) (PPV) light-emitting diodes. Both electroluminescence and photoluminescence intensities decrease with increasing degree of conversion. Partial conjugation enhances the electroluminescence intensity and gives an efficiency (with Ca as electron-injecting contact) as high as 0.75% photons per electron, about two orders of magnitude more efficient than from similar devices prepared from fully converted PPV. The results of constant current stress measurements suggest that the partially conjugated PPV diode is relatively stable at room temperature.

    Notes: We present the results of time-resolved luminescence studies of poly[2-methoxy, 5-(2'-ethyl-hexyloxy)-p-phenylene-vinylene] (MEH-PPV), as a pure film, in solution, in a gel formed by a network of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE), and in a blend with UHMW-PE. The luminescence has a characteristic lifetime of 200–300 ps at room temperature, increasing to 500–700 ps when the materials are cooled to 80 K; the decay time is approximately the same for all the physical forms of the material (solution, film, gel, blend). The relatively short lifetimes, compared to intrinsic values calculated from absorption and emission spectra, and the observed temperature dependence indicate that the luminescence decay is quenched by nonradiative processes. The time decay of the photoluminescence deviates from a single exponential for most forms of the MEH-PPV. Best fits to stretched exponential and double exponential expressions are presented. Steady state photoluminescence spectra and integrated luminescence vs pump intensity data are presented in order to establish which of the possible mechanisms are most important.

    Notes: We report the results of initial measurements on two derivatives of poly(1,6-heptadiyne): a di-ketone (PHDK) and a di-ester (PHDE). Both polymers have the degenerate ground state of poly(1,6-heptadiyne); both are soluble in common organic solvents. Electron spin resonance (ESR) measurements on pristine samples place an upper limit of 10−4 spins per monomer for both polymers. At low doping levels, we observe a single doping-induced absorption band at an energy of approximately half the π−π* gap, Eg/2; the doping-induced spectral features were fully reversible. In situ ESR and absorption measurements during doping show that charge is stored predominantly in spinless charge carriers. Because of the inequivalent carbons on the conjugated backbone, the results are discussed in terms of the (A=B)n polymer. Both PHDK and PHDE are relatively stable in air; the strength of the π−π* absorption band is nearly constant over a period of a week in air, decreasing to 80% of the initial value.

    Notes: We present the results of the Austin-Model 1 (AM1) geometry optimizations and valence effective Hamiltonian (VEH) band-structure calculations aimed at determining the evolution of the geometric structure and electronic properties (ionization potentials, electron affinities, band gaps) as a function of unit cell content in two sets of regular block copolymers. The first set consists of poly(p-phenylene vinylene)/poly(2,5-dimethoxy-1, 4-phenylene vinylene) copolymers, the second set of poly(p-phenylene)/polyacetylene copolymers. In the latter case, the band gap can be tuned over the whole visible range, depending on the extent of the block copolymer sequences. Special attention is paid to the possible occurrence of localization phenomena.

    Notes: We present near steady state photoinduced absorption spectra of two forms of polyaniline. Both the emeraldine base (nondegenerate ground state) and pernigraniline (degenerate ground state) exhibit long lived photoinduced nonlinear excitations with transient absorptions within the π→π* gap. In the case of the emeraldine base, two well-resolved photoinduced absorption bands are observed with maxima at 0.9 and 1.47 eV, accompanied by a bleaching of the 2 eV absorption edge. The different relaxation rates of the two bands indicate that they arise from two independent photoinduced nonlinear excitations. The results are discussed in terms of intrachain and interchain excitations. The possibility of deep traps on defect sites in pernigraniline is suggested.

    Notes: We report visible light emission from Shottky diodes made from semiconducting polymers, confirming the discovery by the Cambridge group [Nature 347, 539 (1990)]. Our results demonstrate that light-emitting diodes can be fabricated by casting the polymer film from solution with no subsequent processing or heat treatment required. Electrical characterization reveals diode behavior with rectification ratios greater than 104. We propose that tunneling of electrons from the recitifying metal contact into the gap states of the positive polaron majority carriers dominates current flow and provides the mechanism for light emission.
