A series of poly(phenylene-ethynylene) copolymers with various aryl spacer units were synthesized for use as emitters in triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion. The upconversion performance of these conjugated polymers was compared to that of well-known poly(phenylene-vinylene) polymers, MEH-PPV and super yellow, in chloroform solution. The copolymer containing anthracene units outperformed both reference polymers recording a maximum upconversion quantum yield of 0.18%.
