Abstract
The authors investigated the energy transfer between the chromophors of a white emitting polyspirobifluorene copolymer containing a blue emitting backbone, a green, and a red emitting dye. They demonstrate that the green dye is mainly excited by Förster resonant energy transfer (FRET), with a Förster radius . The red dye is instead excited by direct FRET and by sequential FRET . Finally, the authors show that the FRET processes, fundamental to have white emission, are of intermolecular nature, while intramolecular energy migration and transfer are negligible.
