Abstract From the Canadian patent

An organic block polymer useful in an electroluminescent polymer device (or in a polymer field effect transistor) that includes an emissive polymer block that is consistently conjugated along the backbone of the emissive polymer block (e.g. a copolymer of 2,7-linked 9,9 dioctyl fluorene and 4,7-linked 2,1,3 benxothiadiazole); and a positive charge carrier polymer block that is consistently conjugated along the backbone of the positive charge carrier polymer block (e.g. a copolymer of 2,7-linked 9,9 dioctyl fluorene and 4N 4N'-linked N,N'-di(3-carboxomethoxyphenyl)benzidine) for transporting positive charge carriers to the emissive polymer block so that the positive charge carriers …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed July 10, 2002 and granted February 7, 2012. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended July 10, 2022.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by July 10, 2024.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
