Abstract
A novel silyl-substituted solvent processable poly(1,4-phenylenevinyle ne) (PPV) derivative, poly(2-dimethyloctylsilyl-1,4-phenylenevinylene) (DMOS-PPV) is synthesized by the dehydrohalogenation route from 2-dim ethyloctylsilyl-1,4-bis(bromomethyl)benzene, and the light-emitting pr operties of the polymer are studied; single layer electroluminescent d evices (ITO/polymer/Ca or Al) exhibit an emission maximum at 520 nm wi th internal quantum efficiency in the range 0.2-0.3%.
