Abstract
Epitaxial growth of thiophene/phenylene co-oligomers (e.g., see Figure) on uniaxially oriented poly(p-phenylene) (PPP) is reported. The emission prope rties of these co-oligomer thin films are investigated and compared to thos e of films grown on quartz. Color-tunable emission highly polarized along t he direction of orientation of the PPP is observed in the former case, whil e isotropic emission occurs on the quartz substrate.
