Polyfluorenes

Beschreibung

With this collection of short review papers we would like to present a broad overview of research on poly?uorenes and related heteroanalogues over the last two decades. The collection begins with papers on the synthesis of po- ?uorenesandrelatedpolyheteroarenes,thenreportsphotophysicalproperties of this class of conjugated polymers both at the ensemble and the single chain level, continues with a discussion of the rich solid state structures of poly?uorenes, and ?nally switches to device applications (e.g. in OLEDs). In addition,two chapters are devoted to de?ned oligo?uorenesas lowmolecular weight model systems forpoly?uorenes and also to degradation studies. We feel that this up-to-date collection will be very helpful to all polymer chemists and physicists, and will also aid graduate students interested in this fascinating and still growing area of research, since such a compact overview is only now available. All articles are presented by leading scientists in their ?elds, insuring state-of-the-art coverage of all relevant aspects. Together with the body of references this volume is meant to assist researchers in the daily lab routine. Moreover, Advances in Polymer Science, as an established series of high quality review papers, represents a very appropriate platform for our project.Wehopethatthisshortcollectionwillbeofgreatvaluebothforbeg- ners and established researchscientists inthe?eldofpoly?uorene research.

Autor

Prof. Dr. Ullrich Scherf studied chemistry at Friedrich Schiller University of Jena, Germany, obtaining his Ph.D. in 1988 on the synthesis of PPV-type organic semiconductors and carbonization of polymer films. He subsequently spent one year at the Institute for Animal Physiology of the Saxonian Academy of Sciences in Leipzig isolating and characterizing of cockroach hormones. He joined the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research, Mainz, in 1990 and completed his habilitation in 1996 on polyarylene-type ladder polymers. He followed a call to the University of Potsdam, Germany, onto a professorship for polymer chemistry. In 2002, he became full professor for Macromolecular Chemistry at Bergische Universität Wuppertal, Germany. He has published over 350 refereed papers and received the Meyer-Struckmann Research Award in 1998.

Rezensionen

From the reviews:

"The editors succeed in their aim of presenting an overview of research on polyfluorenes and related heteroanalogues. ... The book is well edited ... and the index is useful. The chapters are particularly strong in summarizing the various synthetic routes to polyfluorenes and their monomers. Research scientists and graduate students interested in the chemistry and properties of ployfluorenes should look at this book." (William C. Trogler, Journal of the American Chemical Society, Vol. 131 (8), 2009)
