Herein we report a facile synthetic route to a new conjugated polymer, poly{2-[5‘-(2‘ ‘-octyloxy)phenyl)-1‘,3‘,4‘-oxadiazole-2‘-yl]-1,4-phenylenevinylene)} (OPO−PPV), in which a high-electron-affinity aromatic oxadiazole moiety is attached on the PPV backbone as side chain. It is demonstrated that OPO−PPV is a new polymeric material with balanced charge injection for the application as emissive material in single-layer light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The present synthesis of OPO−PPV reveals a promising approach to balance the charge injection between electrons and holes into electroluminescent layers in polymer LEDs by controlling the intrinsic properties of light-emitting materials. The NMR (13C and 1H) spectra of OPO−PPV demonstrate a well-defined structure in the polymer. The polymer exhibits good thermal stability (stable up to 368 °C in nitrogen) and high glass-transition temperature (170 °C). Both the absorption and photoluminescence spectra of the polymer have been studied. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) ha...
