摘要
Oligomeric series of p-phenylenevinylene and p-(dialkoxyphenylene)vinylene with n = 1 - 11 repeating units are characterized in solution by polarized fluorescence and absorption spectroscopy. Assignments of the six lowest singlet-singlet transitions are given as a function of n and extrapolated to the perfectly conjugated polymer. Experiments are compared with semi-empirical quantum mechanical calculations. Especially the role of the symmetry breaking alkoxy-substituents is discussed.
