Electrically Generated Intramolecular Proton Transfer: Electroluminescence and Stimulated Emission from Polymers

TLDR
In this paper, a rod coil copolymer containing 2-(2'- hydroxyphenyl)benzothiazole in the backbone was used to induce a reversible intramolecular proton transfer.
Abstract
: Application of a voltage across a thin film of a rod coil copolymer containing 2-(2'- hydroxyphenyl)benzothiazole in the backbone induces a reversible intramolecular proton transfer. The observed electroluminescence occurs from the excited keto form, produced electrically by a chemical reaction termed electrically generated intramolecular proton transfer, EGIPT. Stimulated emission between 540-640 nm was observed by Ps transient absorption spectroscopy. EGIPT and related proton transfer electroluminescence have implications for understanding proton transfer reactions and organic light emitting devices.

A white-light-emitting molecule: frustrated energy transfer between constituent emitting centers.

TL;DR: This molecule is composed of covalently linked blue- and orange-light-emitting moieties between which energy transfer is entirely frustrated, leading to the production of reproducible, stable white photo- and electroluminescence.

Light-emitting diodes based on conjugated polymers

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate that poly(p-phenylene vinylene), prepared by way of a solution-processable precursor, can be used as the active element in a large-area light-emitting diode.

Excimers and Exciplexes of Conjugated Polymers

TL;DR: It is shown that the luminescence of conjugated polymer thin films originates from excimer emission and that the generally low quantum yield is the result of self-quenching, so that in sufficiently dilute solution, the "single-chain" emission has a quantum yield of unity.

Excited-state proton transfer reactions II. Intramolecular reactions

TL;DR: In this paper, the intrinsic processes and mechanisms of proton transfer in relation to the nature of the intramolecular hydrogen bond ring are reviewed. But the authors focus on the intrinsic process and not the mechanisms of transfer.

The molecular fossil record of oleanane and its relation to angiosperms.

TL;DR: Oleanane has been reported in Upper Cretaceous and Tertiary source rocks and their related oils and has been suggested as a marker for flowering plants as discussed by the authors, suggesting that a separate lineage leads to the angiosperms well before the Early Cretaged or that other plant groups have the rarely expressed ability to synthesize oleanane precursors.
