Organic light - emitting diodes (OLEDs) show promise for applications as high-quality self-emissive displays for portable devices such as cellular phones and personal organisers. Polymer-based OLEDs are oft fabricated by wet methods such a spin-coating. The aim of this work is radical copolymerisation of a triphenylamine based monomer with a diazosulfonate based one. Whereas triphenylamine is a well know species for the hole transporting process in OLED technology diazosulfonate is used for crosslinking. For futher derivatisation the diazo group will be destroyed by UV light to produce free radicals, which are able to build up a croslinked polymer network.
