✦ Synopsis

A family of self‐assembled zinc terpyridyl polymers that exhibit emission colors ranging from violet to yellow (see Figure) with high photoluminescence (PL) quantum yields has been developed. These polymers are promising light‐emitting materials for electroluminescent (EL) devices, and the EL of the Zn terpyridyl polymer in the blue region is particularly desirable.
