Abstract
The present manuscript reports an overview of the design and conceptual approaches to the synthesis of rotaxa conjugated polymers (R-CP), such as aromatic polyazomethines, alternating or random polyfluorene copolymers encapsulated inside native CD cavities. Their synthesis correlated with an overview of the photophysical properties, surface morphology and electrochemical behaviours, which are advantageous for the generation of active layers in organic electronic devices, are considered in this review.
