  abstract  = {Optical, structural and morphological properties of thin films of polyparaphenylenevinylene (PPV) formed by an alkyl sulfinyl precursor route have been studied. Thin films were fabricated on an optical glass and on quartz glass either by spin-coating of the precursor solution or by layer-by-layer deposition using Langmuir-Blodgett technique. PPV precursor films were also spin-coated on gold-coated glass in order to study thin-film optical parameters by surface plasmon spectroscopy. We have been successful in forming about 40 precursor mono layers on quartz glass by Langmuir- Blodgett technique using optimized surface pressure and dipping conditions. After thermal conversion of the precursor layers good quality fluorescent PPV films of yellow colour have been obtained. Optical characterization of the films was carried out by linear absorption and emission spectroscopy, ellipsometry, and surface plasmon spectroscopy. Structural and morphological studies on the thin films were carried out by using X-ray scattering and atomic force microscopy. Wave- guided travelling-wave laser action has been achieved in a PPV film on quartz glass. The sample was transversally pumped with picosecond laser pulses (wavelength 347.15 nm, duration 35 ps). Laser emission occurred at 550 nm for pump pulse energy densities above 1 x 10(-4) J cm(-2). (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved},

  abstract  = {The vibrating reed technique with electro "static" excitation and optical detection has been applied to investigate thin layers of poly-phenylene-vinylene, deposited by spin coating onto microfabricated Si cantilevers, during temperature cycling programs between 90 and 540 K at a rate of 1 K/min. From the vibration frequencies the Young's modulus of the film can be estimated to be about 10 MPa at room temperature in the precursor phase (if prepared from a solution in toluene), which increases by conversion to the conjugate bonded polymer to about 50 MPa. The temperature dependence of internal friction reveals the processes of gamma relaxations (crankshaft motion of side branches in the precursor) and P-relaxation (movements of a few monomer blocks in the polymer chain), as well as peaks indicating the structural transformations during conversion, and possibly a glass transition in the amorphous precursor phase. After conversion only the P-relaxation persists. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved},

  abstract  = {The wave-guided travelling-wave laser action (amplified spontaneous emission) of a neat film of poly(p- phenylenevinylene) (PPV) on a quartz glass substrate prepared by a sulfinyl precursor technique is studied. The samples are transversally pumped with picosecond excitation pulses (wavelength 347.15 nm, duration 35 ps). Lasing occurs at 550 nm. The optical constants of the neat films are determined by transmittance measurements exploiting the multiple beam interference in the transparency region. A fluorescence spectroscopic characterisation is carried out determining the fluorescence quantum distribution, fluorescence quantum yield, degree of fluorescence polarisation, and fluorescence lifetime. The emitting chromophore size (emitting singlet exciton extension) is determined by the ratio of exciton radiative lifetime to repeat-unit based radiative lifetime. The obtained size of about two repeat units is discussed in a disordered solid-state polymer model},

  abstract  = {Solution and refinement of the crystal structure of fac-Ir(ppy)(3) is severely hampered by systematic twinning and pseudo-symmetry.fac-Ir(ppy)(3) Crystallizes in the centrosymmetric space group P (3) over bar as has been deduced from single-crystal structure refinement and investigations of the second harmonic generation (SHG) of fac-Ir(ppy)(3) powder as compared to two standard materials. The topology of the molecular packing of fac-Ir(ppy)(3) is identical to the packing observed for [Ru(bpy)(3)](0), however, the site symmetry of all Ir(ppy)(3) molecules is necessarily lowered from D-3 to C-3. Packing motifs with intermolecular "pi-pi interactions" of T-shaped and "shifted pi stack" geometry are realized. The systematic twinning leads to the occurrence of crystalline domains with rigorously alternating chirality within the bulk of the domains but with homochiral fac-Ir(ppy)(3) contacts at the domain interfaces. These differences in packing motifs are displayed in the emission spectra and in the high-pressure-induced shifts of the emission. The emission maximum of the bulk material at 18 350 cm(-1) (545 nm) and of the domain interfaces at 19 700 cm-1 (507 nm) experience for p < 25 kbar and T = 295 K red shifts of Delta nu/Delta p = -(12 +/- 2) cm(-1)/kbar, and -(22 +/- 4) cm(- 1)/kbar, respectively},
