Well defined oligo(phenylene vinylene) grafted polymers known as oligo(phenylene vinylene)-poly(methylstyrene) hybrids have been developed using a step-wise synthetic protocol, where the length of the OPV can be controlled systematically to achieve specific optoelectronic properties. The process allows the structural modification of attached OPV at a molecular level either by varying the chain length or by changing functionalities. The step-wise generation of OPV chains on the backbone of a highly soluble polymer ensures solubilization in a variety of solvents and also the exhibition of interesting optical properties.
