Abstract: A method for reducing the surface roughness of thin layers of conductive oxides for thin-layer opto-electronic devices envisages polishing with a finishing cloth and an abrasive compound, which has a basic pH and contains silica particles.

Abstract: An organic electroluminescent device having an anode, a cathode, and an intermediate element, which is set between the anode and the cathode and contains hole-transporting organic material, electron-transporting organic material, and luminophore material; the electron-transporting organic material and the hole-transporting organic material being designed to form between them molecular complexes in an excited state (exciplexes or electroplexes); the luminophore material being designed to emit electromagnetic radiation and being supplied, in use, for transfer of energy from the molecular complexes in the excited state.

Abstract: Polyphosphazene homopolymers and copolymers containing repetitive units represented by the general formula: ##STR1## in which the substituents X, which can be equal or different, are represented by the following formulas: ##STR2## where R is hydrogen or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 alkyl group or an aryl or heterocyclic group, with or without substituents, R' is CH.sub.2 or an aryl or heterocyclic group, with or without substituents, n is zero or a whole number variable from 1 to 5 and Y is hydrogen or a halogen or a methyl, nitroso or nitro group; the substituents X.sup.1 are groups equal to X or halogen, or alkoxy, aryloxy, amino or mercapto groups, either substituted or unsubstituted, or a mixture thereof; the sum (w+y+z) has a value varying from 20 to 50,000.The polymers of the present invention are prepared from the corresponding poly(dichlorophosphazenes) of general formula (NPCl.sub.2).sub.m in which m can vary from 20 to 50,000, and can be used as photoconductor materials and for other uses.
