Abstract
Through variation of the chemical route, a conjugated co-polymer has been p repared in a predominantly cis-configuration and a predominantly trans conf iguration respectively. Pump and probe Kerr ellipsometry is used to probe t he behaviour of each in solution compared to a model trimer compound, The r esults indicate that isomerism plays an important part in the excited state dynamics of these materials in solution.
