Abstract
We report the anisotropical optical response of highly oriented poly(p-phen ylene-vinylene) (PPV). The polarization of the main transitions detected in the electronic spectra is discussed with particular emphasis for the band at about 4.7 eV. Moreover, the comparison of the reflectance, transmittance and imaginary part of the dielectric constant spectra allows to locate at about 2.2 eV the onset of the absorption for very long conjugated chains.
