Abstract
In the past decade, there has been great interest in organic molecular and polymeric electroluminescent devices, particularly conjugated-polymer-based light-emitting devices (LEDs).1–4 Electroluminescence (EL) combined with other unique properties of polymers, such as solution processability, bandgap tunability, and mechanical flexibility, make conjugated polymers excellent candidates for low-cost large-area display applications.
