Post-polymerisation functionalisation of conjugated polymer backbones and its application in multi-functional emissive nanoparticles

Functionalisation of conjugated polymers is essential for performance in many applications, yet there are limited approaches to achieve this. Here the authors developed a method for the direct postpolymerisation modification of the aromatic backbone of conjugated polymers and used them to create mul...
