Block copolymerization of plural types of monomers offers a new opportunity for the preparation of a variety of multifunctional polymers. Poly(4‐diphenylaminostyrene) (PDAS)‐poly(9‐vinylanthracene) (PVAN) binary block copolymer (PDAS‐PVAN) was synthesized by (living) anionic polymerization using the benzyllithium/ N,N,N′,N′ ‐tetramethylethylenediamine system. The photoluminescence emission of PDAS‐PVAN was enhanced by the fluorescence resonance energy transfer from PDAS block to PVAN block in PDAS‐PVAN. The hole drift mobility of the copolymer was controllable by the amount of triphenylamino groups in the polymer chain. The optical and electrical properties of PDAS‐PVAN were adjustable through the polymer chain structure. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2010
