【 摘 要 】

Poly(arylenenethynylene)s or PAEs are an interesting class of conjugated polymers that have potential uses in the field of thin film transistors, organic LEDs, sensors, and molecular wires.The field of PAEs have grown in recent years, however very few of its conjugated polymers have a heterocyclic motif contained within them.We have designed some conjugated heterocyclic polymers that contain quinoline, benzothidiazole, and quinoxaline.These polymers show interesting ionochromic and solvochromic effects as well as unusual solid state properties.Some of these polymers will demonstrate their ability to form fascinating nanostructures by use of either mesoporous discs or gold mediated nanotubes.Finally, we also have produced peralkynylated heterocyclic molecules for use in potential n-semiconductive devices.These molecules are not only aesthtically pleasing, but versatile molecules that could be used in conjugated PAEs.
