Photophysics of Surface-Bound Polymers

结合理论和实验研究的光活性聚合物共价结合或物理吸附到表面将进行。这项工作的目的是利用聚合物的发光特性来阐明决定表面上聚合物结构的因素。这项工作也将为利用聚合物在表面进行光化学反应或增敏提供基础。此外，还将制备新的聚合物结合发色团，并探索一些将聚合物与表面共价结合的新方法。

A combined theoretical and experimental study of photoactive polymers covalently bound or physically adsorbed to surfaces will be undertaken. The objective of this work is to use the luminescent properties of the polymer to elucidate the factors that determine the structure of a polymer on a surface. This work will also provide a basis for utilizing polymers to carry out or sensitize photochemical reactions at surfaces. Additionally new polymer-bound chromophores will be prepared and some new methods for covalently binding a polymer to a surface will be explored.
