Two azopolymers (DACENO(2) and DACEOCH(3)) with a special structure were designed and synthesized. The azopolymer films doped with the lanthanide complex Eu(TTA)(3)Phen were prepared by a casting method with a mixed solution of the azopolymer and lanthanide complex. UV-vis spectra show that the absorption peaks of the predesigned azopolymers DACENO(2) and DACEOCH(3) are separated from that of Eu(TTA)(3)Phen. Under this circumstance, the photo-induced anisotropy of the films could not be destroyed by excitation and emission during fluorescence measurements. Polarized luminescence of both oriented films was observed with polarization ratios of 3.0 for the DACENO(2)-Eu(TTA)(3)Phen film and 2.7 for the DACEOCH(3)-Eu(TTA)(3)Phen film at 613 nm, respectively. The luminescent properties of the film were found to be affected by the chemical structure of the azopolymer, the extent of the photo-induced alignment and the angle between the orientated direction of the film and the direction of the polarizer. All the results from this work revealed that the polarized luminescence from the azopolymer film doped with a lanthanide complex can be controlled by the extent of photo-induced alignment.
