Three copolymers PF-N-HPS1, PF-N-HPS10 and PF-N-HPS20 were then obtained by copolymerizations of 2,7-fluorene deriva- tives with the silole monomer at feed ratios of 1%, 10%, and 20%.

For the device A, PF-N-HPS only showed very low EL efficiency of 0.06-0.33 cd/A, indicating that the A1 cathode could not inject electron efficiently to the emissive polymers containing the 4-（N,N-dimethylamino）phenyl groups.
