Conjugated polymers are used as the active semiconducting material in light-emitting diodes (LEDs) [1] and photovoltaic devices (PVs). [2] In many cases, LEDs and PVs based on a blend of conjugated polymers are more efficient than those based on a single polymeric material, as the phase separation that occurs in a thin film of a polymer blend creates a series of self-assembled heterojunctions where exciton dissociation (in a PV) or charge recombination (in an LED) can occur. Such phase separation can occur over a wide range of length scales, and can occur both normal-to [3][4][5][6][7] and within the plane of the film. [8][9][10][11] PVs [12][13][14][15] and LEDs [16,17] have been widely explored using (binary) blends of two conjugated polymers as the active layer, however (ternary) blends of three conjugated polymers have received much less attention for device applications. One report has shown that a ternary blend of conjugated polymers can be used to generate white-light electroluminescence. [18] Here, it was proposed that white-light emission occurred since energy transfer between the different polymers was hindered because of phase separation between the different blend components. A second study [19] investigated a ternary blend as the active light-emitting medium in an LED. It was shown that the color of the electroluminescence emission was dependent on the drive-voltage, an effect also presumed to result from demixing. Studies on blends of saturated polymer ternary blends have shown that in a system comprising of the polymers A, B, and C, the resultant structures that are formed are highly dependent on the relative polymer-polymer interactions at the interfaces between the different phases. In general, if the interaction parameter v AC is larger than (v AB + v BC ), a layer of polymer B intercalates at the A/C interface to form a wetting layer and thus reduces the overall free energy. [20,21] This effect has also been observed in studies on freeze-fractured ternary blends, [22,23] where dropletlike structures have been identified, in which a core comprising of one polymer is surrounded by a shell of a second polymer that is itself dispersed in a third polymer. Despite the understanding of the structures formed in saturated polymer ternary blends being at a relatively complete stage, little is known regarding the structure or electronic properties of spin-cast thin films of ternary blends containing conjugated polymers. Here, we address this issue, and report a spectroscopic and morphological study of a spin-cast, ternaryblend thin film that is composed of two fluorescent conjugated polymers and a non-fluorescent (saturated) polymer. Using spectroscopic mapping of the emission from the blend, we demonstrate that the degree of energy transfer between the conjugated polymers varies strongly across the film surface. We propose that this hindered energy transfer results from the presence of the saturated polymer, which is also present within phases that are apparently rich in the conjugated polymers. We argue...
