Poly(p-phenylenevinylene) (PPV) derivatives have long been studied because of their attractive opto- and electroluminescent properties and have potential applications for devices such as light-emitting diodes and photovoltaics. The ability to induce alignment of these PPV derivatives may lead to the enhancement of charge mobility and their efficiency. In this study, uniform nanofibers of poly[2,5-(2'-ethylhexyloxy)]-1,4-phenylenevinylene (BEH-PPV) have been fabricated through the method of electro-spinning, and an induced alignment of the polymer fibers was observed through photoluminescence data. This study also focuses on the doping of these fibers with the fullerene derivative, 1-(3-methoxycarbonyl)-propyl-1-phenyl-(6,6)-C(61) (PCBM), to induce more incidence of donor/acceptor junctions. Composite fibers with up to a 1:2 weight ratio of PCBM/BEH-PPV have been fabricated and exhibited an ability to quench the photoluminescence of BEH-PPV, indicative OF charge transfer.
