The steady-state spectral measurement shows that the increasing of fluorene-vinylene (FV) group could lead to the red shift of absorption spectra and restrain the excimer formation between oligomers. Quantum chemical calculations exhibit that the energy levels of HOMO, LUMO, and the band gap gradually converge to a constant in accompany with the increasing of FV unit.

The time-resolved fluorescence tests exhibits that the lifetime of excimer emission would be almost invariable after the number of FV group in oligomer is ≥2. In nonlinear optical test, the two-photon photoluminescence efficiency and two-photon absorption cross-section will both gradually enhance and be close to an extremum after the number of FV unit is equal to 4.
