Abstract

Novel semiconductor block copolymers were synthesized using nitroxide-mediated radical polymerization (NMRP). They are comprised of a hole conductor block carrying tetraphenylbenzidine pendant units (PVDMTPD) and a second poly(4-vinylpyridine) (P4VP) block suitable for the preferential incorporation of n-type semiconductor nanocrystals. The conditions of NMRP for both monomers were optimized in order to get macroinitiators with well-defined molecular weights and very low polydispersity (
