Poly(2,3-naphthalenevinylene-alt-N-ethylhexyl-3,6-carbazolevinylene), 2,3-PNCPV, poly(2,6-naphthalene vinylenealt- N-ethylhexyl-3,6-carbazolevinylene), 2,6-PNCPV, and poly(1,4-naphthalenevinylene-alt-N-ethylhexyl-3,6- carbazolevinylene), 1,4-PNCPV were synthesized through the Wittig polycondensation reaction. The conjugation lengths of the polymers were controlled by differently linked naphthalenes in the polymer main chain. The resulting polymers were completely soluble in common organic solvents, and exhibited good thermal stability at up to $400^{circ}C$. The synthesized polymers showed UV-visible absorbance and photoluminescence (PL) in the ranges of 357-374 nm and 487-538 nm, respectively. The carbazole and 2,3-linked naphthalene containing 2,3-PNCPV showed a blue PL peak at 487 nm. A single-layer light-emitting diode was fabricated with an ITO/polymer/Al configuration. The electroluminescence (EL) emission of 2,3-PNCPV was shown at 483 nm.
