Anisotropic charge transport, or polarized photo‐ and electroluminescence are possible applications for materials combining the optical properties of arylenevinylene polymers with the characteristic orientational order of the liquid‐crystalline state. Thermally stale, soluble materials with a broad mesophase, which can be oriented macroscopically using conventional processing techniques and when exhibit highly anisotropic luminescence behavior of use in polarized LEDs are presented.
