These photophysical observations are consistent with those of the D–A–D-type compound POZ-DBPHZ [17], indicating that one D–A pair is sufficient

In comparison with the photophysical properties of the D–A–D compound, the absorption of 1 (λabs = 461 nm) is almost the same as that of POZ-DBPHZ (λabs = 463 nm) [17], while the PL emission peak appeared in a slightly blue-shifted region (λPL = 502 nm) from D–A–D

These data indicate that the effective length of π-conjugation is not affected by the number of donors, probably due to the right D–A dihedral angle for both compounds in the ground state. In contrary, the slight blue-shift of the PL spectra of
