Photophysical processes of a copolymer containing naphthalene and carbazole rings

摘要

The photophysical processes of copolymer formed by copolymerization of beta-naphthyl-methacrylate (NMA) with vinylcarbazole (VCZ) were studied. The results show that when the solution of copolymer (NMA-VCZ) in THF is located in a low concentration range (about 10(-8) mol/l), the fluorescence emission is in good agreement with that of NMA monomer and the excimer is formed with gradual increase in concentration of copolymer (NMA-VCZ). The fluorescence of copolymer (NMA-VCZ) can be efficiently quenched both by electron donors and accepters where the quenching effects follow the Stern-Volmer equation. The dimolecular exciplex between copolymer (NMA-VCZ) and N,N-dimethylaniline (DMA) is formed and the triple exciplex is also observed in the same system. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.
