Abstract
AbstractA novel phenothiazine‐based polymer was synthesized through the Heck reaction of 3,7‐divinyl‐N‐octyl‐phenothiazine with 4,7‐dibromo‐2‐octylbenzotriazole according to the alternating donor–acceptor strategy. The polymer was characterized with 1H NMR, infrared spectroscopy, gel permeation chromatography, cyclic voltammetry, ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, and fluorescence spectroscopy. With the polymer used as an active layer, three nondoped polymer light‐emitting diodes (PLEDs) with a double‐layer configuration were fabricated by the spin‐coating approach with different thermal annealing processes. The emission maximum in electroluminescent spectra was stabilized at 616 nm. The maximum luminance reached 2432 cd/m2. The coordinate value of Commission International de l'Eclairage 1931 in the double‐layer PLEDs after the thermal treatment was nearly stabilized at (x, y) =(0.62, 0.38). Additionally, the luminous efficiency of device II reached a balanceable state with an increase in the current. Therefore, the polymer had an orange‐red emission with stable chromaticity coordinates under different driving voltages. Finally, a nondoped device with a stable luminous efficiency and chromaticity was obtained. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 45: 4867–4878, 2007
