A new approach for the preparation of poly (para-phenylenevinylene) (PPV) with an ordered structure is presented. PPV is synthesized by a precursor method using a cholesteric liquid crystal medium. The resultant PPV film is observed to have a cholesteric fingerprint-like texture, indicating replication of the cholesteric liquid crystal medium. Infrared absorption measurements confirm that the PPV has essentially the same molecular structure as normal PPV film. Ultraviolet-visible absorption measurements show that the absorption band due to π-π* transition of the conjugated main-chain is located at 402 nm. The conversion is found to occur at the interface with the cholesteric liquid crystal medium as a mechanical process.
