A soluble polymer emitting green color with high efficiency was synthe
sized. Bright green electroluminescence devices, both single layer and
multilayer, were fabricated. The luminous efficiency was improved dra
matically. Carrier injection from the electrodes to the emissive layer
and concomitant green electroluminescence from the emissive layer wer
e observed. A luminance of 920 cd/m(2) and luminous efficiency of 5.35
1m/W were achieved at a drive voltage of 15 V for the multilayer devi
