Electroluminescent Behavior of a Homologous Series of Phenylenevinylene Oligomers

Abstract

Oligomeric LED systems have received little attention compared to that devoted to polymeric LED systems. This paper focuses on the electroluminescent behavior of a homologous series of six phenylenevinylene oligomers—their molecular structure is illustrated in the Figure—in LEDs in combination with a comparative study of related cyclic voltammetry data.
