Thin film of polyurethane having metal complex was prepared by vapor deposition polymerization of bis (5,8-dihydroxyquinoline) zinc (ZnHq2) and 4, 4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate monomers. The film was applied for the electron-transporting emissive layer of the organic light emitting diode. The deposition-polymerized film was found to give higher quantum efficiency of luminescence than the ZnHq2 monomer film.

The novel ladder-shaped polydiacetylene with a terephthalamide linker in the molecular center, namely poly(TPh-bisDA) was synthesized by photo-polymerization. The characteristics of thin films of polymer were dependent upon a casting solvent, but no significant change of backbone conformation of the PDA was observed. Obtained film is expected to be applied to the semi-conducting materials for organic field effect transistors (OFET).
