- Materials that respond to radiant energy and are capable of generating a signal without a biased voltage include materials that chemically react to light and thereby generate a signal.
- Such light-sensitive chemically reactive materials include for example, many conjugated polymers and electro- and photo-luminescent materials.
- Specific examples include, but are not limited to, MEH-PPV ("Optocoupler made from semiconducting polymers", G. Yu, K. Pakbaz, and A. J. Heeger, Journal of Electronic Materials, Vol. 23, pp 925-928 (1994); and MEH-PPV Composites with CN-PPV ("Efficient Photodiodes from Interpenetrating Polymer Networks", J. J. M. Halls et al. (Cambridge group) Nature Vol. 376, pp. 498-500, 1995).
- the photoactive layer 130 containing the active organic material can be applied from solutions by any conventional means, including spin- coating, casting, and printing.
- the active organic materials can be applied directly by vapor deposition processes, depending upon the nature of the materials. It is also possible to apply an active polymer precursor and then convert to the polymer, typically by heating.
- the cathode 150 is an electrode that is particularly efficient for injecting or collecting electrons or negative charge carriers.
- the cathode can be any metal or nonmetal having a lower work function than the first electrical contact layer (in this case, an anode).
- Materials for the second electrical contact layer can be selected from alkalil metals of Group 1 (e.g., Li, Cs), the Group 2 (alkaline earth) metals, the Group 12 metals, the rare earths, the lanthanides, and the actinides. Materials such as aluminum, indium, calcium, barium, and magnesium, as well as combinations, can be used.
- the cathode layer 150 is usually applied by a physical vapor deposition process. Jn general, the cathode layer will be patterned, as discussed above in reference to the anode layer 110 and conductive polymer layer 120. Similar processing techniques can be used to pattern the cathode layer.
- Optional layer 140 can function both to facilitate electron transport, and also serve as a buffer layer or confinement layer to prevent quenching reactions at layer interfaces. Preferably, this layer promotes electron mobility and reduces quenching reactions.
- electron transport materials for optional layer 140 include metal chelated oxinoid compounds, such as tris(8-hydroxyquinolato)aluminum (Alq ⁇ ); phenanthroline-based compounds, such as 2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl- 1 ,10-pherianthroline (DDPA) or 4,7-diphenyl-1 ,10-phenanthroline (DPA), and azole compounds such as 2-(4-biphenylyl)-5-(4-t-butylphenyl)-1 ,3,4- oxadiazole (PBD) and 3-(4-biphenylyl)-4-phenyl-5-(4-t-butylphenyl)-1 ,2,4- triazole (TAZ).
- a layer between the conductive polymer layer 120 and the active layer 130 to facilitate positive charge transport and/or band-gap matching of the layers, or to function as a protective layer.
- additional layers between the active layer 130 and the cathode layer 150 to facilitate negative charge transport and/or band-gap matching between the layers, or to function as a protective layer.
- Layers that are known in the art can be used.
- any of the above-described layers can be made of two or more layers.
- inorganic anode layer 110 may be surface treated to increase charge carrier transport efficiency.
- the choice of materials for each of the component layers is preferably determined by balancing the goals of providing a device with high device efficiency.
- the device 100 can be prepared by sequentially depositing the individual layers on a suitable substrate. Substrates such as glass and polymeric films can be used. In most cases the anode is applied to the substrate and the layers are built up from there. However, it is possible to first apply the cathode to a substrate and add the layers in the reverse order. In general, the different layers will have the following range of thicknesses: inorganic anode 110, 500-5000 A, preferably 1000-2000 A; conductive polymer layer 120, 50-2500 A, preferably 200-2000 A; light- emitting layer 130, 10-1000 A, preferably 100-800 A; optional electron transport layer 140, 50-1000 A, preferably 200-800 A; cathode 150, 200- 10000 A, preferably 300-5000 A.
- inorganic anode 110 500-5000 A, preferably 1000-2000 A
- conductive polymer layer 120, 50-2500 A preferably 200-2000 A
- Examples 1-5 illustrate the preparation of the copolymers of the invention using dihalo monomers and zerovalent nickel.
- the copolymers were characterized by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and the number average molecular weights (M n ) determined by Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC).
- the ensuing deep blue/purple solution was stirred at 60 °C for 30 minutes, and then a solution of a first monomer, 2,7-diiodo-9,9- ⁇ /s(2-ethylhexyl)fluorene (1.08 g, 1.68 mmol) and a second monomer, 2,5-/J/ ' s(p-bromophenyl)-N-(p- hexylphenyl)pyrrole (0.30 g, 0.56 mmol) in toluene (20 ml) was added via syringe. The reaction mixture was then stirred at 75 °C for 5 days.
- Example 1A The procedure of Example 1 was repeated, except that the reaction mixture was stirred at 75 °C for 24 hours, instead of for 5 days. In addition, after the mixture was filtered, the resulting_solid was again dissolved in chloroform and precipitated in pure methanol, before the residue was sucessively washed with methanol, water and methanol and dried in vacuo. Essentially the same molecular weight provided in Table 1 below were obtained.
- Example 2-5 The procedure of Example 1 was repeated using 2,7-dibromo-9,9- b/s(2-ethylhexyl)fluorene as the first monomer and different second monomers, and with the addition of iodobenzene as an endcapping group.
- the reaction mixture without endcapper was heated with stirring for4 days, the iodobenzene endcapper was added, and the mixture was stirred at 75°C for another day.

- the solid residue was then dissolved in chloroform, and again precipitated into a solution of methanol (100 ml), acetone (100 ml) and concentrated hydrochloric acid (5 ml). After stirring for 1 hour, the mixture was filtered. Finally the residue was successively washed in methanol, water and methanol and dried in vacuo.

- tefra/ /s(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) (19 mg, 0.0166 mmol) and a degassed aqueous potassium carbonate solution (2M, 7.0 ml) were added to the tube.
- the solution was heated in an oil bath at 100°C for 48 hours with vigorous stirring.
