Abstract

AbstractNovel copolymers derived from amino‐functionalized fluorene‐ and selenium‐containing heterocycles [2,1,3‐benzoselenadiazole (BSeD)] were synthesized by the palladium‐catalyzed Suzuki coupling method. Their quaternized salt polyelectrolytes of corresponding compositions were obtained by a postpolymerization treatment. The resulting copolymers were soluble in polar solvents. An efficient energy transfer due to exciton trapping on the BSeD sites was observed. Devices from such copolymers emitted orange‐red light peaked at 560–610 nm. All the polymers showed good device performance with high‐work‐function metal Al as a cathode without the use of an additional electron‐injection layer and are promising candidates for polymer light‐emitting diode applications. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
