New aromatic poly(1,3,4-oxadiazole)s were synthesized having excellent
film forming properties due to their solubility in common organic sol
vents. The investigated new polyoxadiazoles can be used as emission ma
terial in single layer LED. The polyoxadiazoles show an emission in th
e range of blue to yellow light. The external quantum efficiency as we
ll as the turn-on voltage of the devices are influenced when blends of
the polyoxadiazole with hole transport materials are used.
