These oligomers show good solubility in common organic solvents. Their photophysical, electrochemical, electronic structure and charge transfer properties between these star-shaped n-conjugated oligomers and N,N＇-bis（1-ethylpropyl）-3,4：9,10- perylene bis（tetracarboxyl diimide） （EP-PDI） have been investigated by UV-vis absorption spectra, photolumines- cence （PL） spectra, cyclic voltammetry （CV） measurement, theoretical calculations and fluorescence quenching. The results show that the absorptions and fluorescences of TPA-CZ3, TPA-TPA3 and TPA-PTZ3 are red shifted with the electron-donating ability of the peripheral unit increasing from carbazole to triphenylamine and phenothi- azine. In addition, although the bithiophene group has a weaker electron-donating ability than carbazole, triphenylamine and phenothiazine, the absorption and fluorescence of TPA-BT3 have a red shift than those of TPA-CZ3, TPA-TPA3 and TPA-PTZ3 because TPA-BT3 has a longer conjugation length than TPA-CZ3, TPA-TPA3 and TPA-PTZ3. The triphenylamine core and the peripheral units can constitute a large conjugated structure. The fluorescence quenching properties indicate that efficient charge transfer can happen between the star-shaped oligomers and EP-PDI.展开更多
