摘要: The electronic structure of cyano‐substituted poly(2,5‐dihexyloxy‐p‐phenylene‐vinylene), or CN‐PPV, has been studied in both pristine and doped states. Ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS) x‐ray (XPS), as well optical absorption have carried out under ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) conditions, the results interpreted with help quantum‐chemical calculations. For polymer, addition cyano groups to vinylene units does not affect width π‐bands closest Fermi level; however, positions flat parts upper are shifted by approximately 0.4 eV towards higher binding energies relative energy, compared corresponding bands other alkoxy‐substituted poly(p‐phenylenevinylene)s. On hand, there only marginal differences spectra; interband onset is comparable values for poly(p‐pheny...
