Abstract

Two novel triphenylamine-substituted poly( p-phenylenevinylene) derivatives, P1 and P2, have been successfully synthesized through the Witting–Horner reaction. The structures and properties of the monomers and the resulting polymers were characterized by using 1H NMR, FT-IR, GPC, TGA, UV–vis absorption spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electroluminescence (EL) spectroscopy. The obtained polymers exhibited good thermal stability and high photoluminescence quantum yield (0.42–0.90). The polymer light-emitting diodes (PLEDs) with the configuration of ITO/PEDOT/polymers/Ca/Al were fabricated. The single-layer device based on P1 and P2 emitted stable blue and yellow light with the turn-on voltage of 4 and 6 V, respectively. The maximum luminance of 3003 cd/m 2 at 10 V was obtained for device P2.
