A luminescent polymer, suitable for use in an active layer of an organic light-emitting device, organic solid state lasers, a photovoltaic cell or an electrochromic display and exhibiting good stability and microstructure control, which has the structure n n nwherein Ar 1 and Ar 2 are aromatic or heteroaromatic rings, such as phenyl, biphenyl, fluorene, thiophene, pyridyl, or their substituted aromatic or heteroaromatic rings with or without deuterium, and R 1 and R 2 are independently each selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, deuterium, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, alkoxyl, aryl and heteroaryl, or halogen, wherein D represents deuterium and n is an integer greater than 3. Electronic devices and methods of making them which employ these luminescent polymers are also described. |
