Atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) was used as a versatile route to well-defined poly(diethylhexyl-p-phenylenevinylene-b-styrene) (PPV-b-PS) semiconducting block copolymers. For this purpose, original conjugated macroinitiators were synthesized from DEH-PPV and further used for the copolymerization reaction. The microphase-separated morphologies obtained with the semiconducting PPV-b-PS...

Two different approaches to obtain electron donor-acceptor interfaces via self-assembly of block copolymer systems are discussed, where the donor domains are formed by a π-conjugated rod-like polymer and the acceptor domains result from a coiled polymer modified by C₆₀ fullerenes. In the first strategy, C₆₀ is chemically grafted onto the coil polymer, typically a statistical...
