The synthesis and a comprehensive spectroscopic and photophysical study are presented of four alternating binaphthyl−oligothiophene copolymers (DP: 10−15 repeat units) in solution at room and low temperature and in the solid state (thin films). Detailed results are presented on absorption, emission, and triplet−triplet absorption spectra together with all relevant quantum yields (fluorescence, intersystem cross...
The effect of side chain length of [pi]-conjugated poly(9,9-dialkylfluorene)s has been studied in semi-dilute (10 mg/mL) toluene solutions using small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) and 1H and 2H NMR spectroscopies. Under these conditions, SANS data indicate that poly(9,9-dinonylfluorene) and poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene) are dissolved down to the molecule level and appear as elongated one-dimensional chains (leng...
A comprehensive study has been undertaken of the electronic spectral and photophysical properties of two oligophenyl (BPH and BPHF) and one oligothienyl (BTF) swivel cruciforms involving measurements of absorption, fluorescence, and phosphorescence spectra, quantum yields of fluorescence (phiF), phosphorescence (phiPh) and triplet formation (phiT), lifetimes of fluorescence (τF) and of the triplet state (τT), a...
A complete spectroscopic and photophysical study of three alternating naphthalene-α-thiophene copolymers was undertaken in solution (room and low temperature) and in the solid state (thin films in a Zeonex matrix). The study comprises absorption, emission, and triplet−triplet spectra together with quantitative measurements of quantum yield (fluorescence, intersystem-crossing, internal conversion, and singlet ox...
We report on the phase behavior of poly(9,9-dihexylfluorene) (PF6), poly(9,9-diheptylfluorene) (PF7), poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene) (PF8), poly(9,9-dinonylfluorene) (PF9), and poly(9,9-didecylfluorene) (PF10) in methylcyclohexane (MCH). After a heating−cooling cycle, in the 10−50 mg/mL concentration range, PF6/MCH, PF7/MCH, PF8/MCH, and PF9/MCH systems were found to be gel-like, while PF10/MCH appears less viscous....
We report on the nanoscale structure and solvent-induced phase behavior of two, nearly similar π-conjugated hairy-rod polymers, branched side chain poly[9,9-bis(2-ethylhexyl)fluorene-2,7-diyl] (PF2/6) and linear side chain poly[9,9-dioctylfluorene-2,7-diyl] (PFO or PF8), in good and bad (or poor) solventsdeuterated toluene and deuterated methylcyclohexane (MCH)at 20 °C. Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) mea...
