LIGHT EMITTING POLYMERS

LEPs have been identified as a promising class of materials for organoelectronic applications. Easy processing and higher mechanical flexibility of LEPs enable the polymer LEDs to be made less expensively and in large sheets making them suitable for large screen displays. LEPs also offer great deal of promise as a cheaper and simpler lighting source due to their less power consumption. However the use of PLEDs in broad range of consumer applications in a cost effective manner is constrained by short life span and decreased efficiency resulting from space charge effects. This has motivated the polymer chemists to create new types of LEPs with tailored properties by incorporation of side groups or by copolymerisation. This work aims to review the use of light emitting polymers (LEPs) as electroluminescent materials in polymer LEDs and to summarise the contributions made by various chemist groups so as to improve efficiency of PLEDs.
