Herein, we propose a concept on the nanopolymer that is a nanoscale polymer chain with the repeat units of nanomonomers, In this article, a soluble organic nanopolymer of wide bandgap semiconductors was synthesized by the Yamamoto polymerization of nanogrid monomer as the repeat units with the rectangle size of -1.7 nm × 1.2 nm. The alkyl side chain substituent at 9-position of fluorenes guarantees the polygrid with excellent solubility. Tetrafluorenes in the conjugation-interrupted backbones of polygrid acts as the active light-emitting centers without obvious green band in the fluorescence spectra of the films after 10 h annealing at 180 ℃, indicating this nanopolymer exhibits excellent spectral stability. Such soluble nanopolymers will be the fifth- generation of macromolecular materials with a potential character of overall performance improvement.展开更多

The introduction of oxadiazole moiety as more bulky group prevents the aggregation and reduces the crystallinity of the polymers. Efficient intramolecular energy transfer from oxadiazole moiety to the conjugated backbone has been realized, leading to 70% improvement of photoluminescence quantum efficiency of the designed polymers. Compared with PAF, the PFOXD exhibits significant improvement in electroluminescence properties, with luminous efficiency of 0.8 cd/A and maximum luminance of 1800 cd/m2.展开更多

Stable polymer-SWCNT complex can be formed via the multivalent π-π stacking in＂.eraction of the lateral pyrene functional groups and the polyfluorene backbone with the outer surface of carbon nanotubes; meanwhile the lateral alkyl chains can impart good solubility to the complex. As expected, polyfluorenes bearing lateral pyrene functional groups and octyl chains exhibited much higher ,zarbon nanotube solubility in common organic solvents than the corresponding polyfluorenes bearing only octyl chains. Photophysical studies indicated that the formation ofpalymer-SWCNT complex can effectively quench the fluorescence of polyfluorenes.展开更多

The optical, electrochemical and thermal properties of the hyperbranched polymer-cored star polymers were investigated. These polymers exhibited good ther- mal and color stability in solid state, and there was no significant blue-green emission after the poly- mers had been annealed in air for 2.5 h. Their three-dimensional hyperbranched structures could ef- fectively reduce the aggregation of the peripheral rigid linear conjugated polyfluorene chains.展开更多
