The combination of luminescent polymers and suitable energy-accepting materials may lead to a molecularlevel control of luminescence in nanostructured films. In this study, the properties of layer-by-layer (LbL) films of poly(p-phenylene vinylene) (PPV) were investigated with steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopies, where fluorescence quenching was controlled by interposing inert polyelectrol...
