Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Nanocrystals of 5,5′-bis(4-biphenylyl)-2,2′-bithiophene (BP2T) which is a type of thiophene/phenylene co-oligomer (TPCO) were prepared using a miniemulsion method. When the BP2T nanocrystal size decreased to less than 600 nm, the peak energy of 0-1 emission band blue-shifted by 0.17 eV compared to bulk crystals. As the nanocrystal size decreased further, the entire emission band exhibited a gradual blue shift. At a size of 150 nm, the emission energy became comparable to that of the monomer state. The size-dependent optical properties can be attributed to the combined effect based on the surface effects including the lattice softening, and quantum effects involving the specific surface area-dependent site shift effect and exciton confinement.
