6-(10-Alkylphenothiazine-3-vinylene)-2-methyl-4-dicyanomethylene-4H-pyran derivatives were synthesized by Knoevenagel condensation. They are red-emitting materials for organic light emitting device (OLED) which composed of electron donor of 6-(10-Alkylphenothiazine-3-vinylene) groups and electron acceptor of -2-methyl-4-dicyanomethylene-4H-pyran groups by a conjugated structure. The structural properties of reaction products were analyzed FT-IR and $^1H-NMR$ spectroscopy. The thermal stabilities and reactivities were measured by melting points and yields. The UV-visibles and PL properties can be determined by exitation spectra and emission spectra, respectively.

In this study, two kinds of polymer (PPQX-2hdPTZ (P1), POPQX-2hdPTZ (P2)) were synthesised by Suzuki coupling reaction based on phenothiazine derivative as electron-donor and quinoxaline derivative as electron-acceptor. Microwave synthesis workstation was used to shorten the polymerization time and increase the degree of polymerization. The physical, thermal stability, optical and electrochemical properties of the synthesized polymer were confirmed. The thermal stability of two polymers was outstanding as the initial decomposition temperature was $323-328^{\circ}C$. And additional substituted alkoxy chain on P2 showed higher degree of polymerization. An analysis of electrochemical properties, all polymer had similar HOMO energy level values. Device was fabricated by ITO/PEDOT:PSS/active layer/$BaF_2$/Al structure and photovoltaic properties were confirmed. Each device has a different film thickness and the resulting change in PCE was confirmed. As a result the thinner thickness of the film showed a high efficiency ($PCE_{max}:P1=1.0%$, P2 = 1.1%).
