Abstract:
An opto-electronic device comprising a substrate having a plurality of polymeric layers on the surface thereof, wherein at least one of the polymeric layers comprises a crosslinked electroactive polymer prepared by the process comprising:(a) reacting, under coupling conditions, (i) an initial oligomeric moiety comprised of arylene monomer units and bearing halo-substituted termini with (ii) a halobenzene reactant, wherein either the initial oligomeric moiety or the halobenzene reactant, or both the initial oligomeric moiety and the halobenzene reactant are substituted with a reactive group R containing an unsaturated bond, to produce a crosslinkable oligomer, and (b) crosslinking the crosslinkable oligomer under conditions sufficient to promote crosslinking.
