Notes:
Large polysilane spherulites have been observed. The spherulites were prepared by controlling the removal rate of solvents from poly(n-butyl-n-pentylsilane) under a xylene atmosphere. The diameter of the spherulites was greater than 0.1 mm. The structure of the spherulites was compared with that of the polysilane powder by polarized microscopy, SEM, DSC, and x-ray diffractometry. A high photoluminescence quantum yield of 0.3 was obtained for the spherulites. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
