摘要
We discuss the stages of the luminescence processes in substituted and soluble poly(thiophenes), using results from determinations of absolute quantum yields of photoluminescence, fast pump-probe experiments and microcavity devices. Enhancement of the quantum yield of photoluminescence, with poly(thiophenes) in the solid state, call be obtained by dispersing the conjugated chain in a molecularly dispersed polymer blend, or by adding side chains designed for forcing the conjugated main chains apart. At the wavelength of stimulated emission, we observe a narrow bandwidth emission in the high-Q one-dimensional microcavity devices prepared by sandwiching two dielectric mirrors around a thin polymer film, A strong enhancement of the power efficiency is observed at a pump power of 1 mu W/cm(2), but does not conclusively show lasing characteristics.
