Multicolor multilayer light-emitting devices based on pyridine-containing conjugated polymers and para-sexiphenyl oligomer

There is increased interest in developing multicolor light-emitting devices. We report here the fabrication and study of multilayer color-variable/white light-emitting devices based on pyridine-containing conjugated polymers and para-sexiphenyl (6P) oligomer. Voltage-dependent multicolor emission was observed in both bilayer and trilayer configurations. The emission colors of single devices cover a wide range of visible spectra whose Commission International de I’Eclairage (CIE) color coordinates vary from blue to white to green with increasing voltages. The color coordinate traverses along a straight line in the CIE chromaticity diagram. The role of interfaces in the operation of devices is discussed.
