Abstract - It is found that one of the types of molecular organic nanocrystals, the so-called J-aggregates, is able to modify optoelectronic properties of electroactive polymers. It is intrinsic that the polyaniline interpolymeric complex, known as p-type semiconductor, turns into electroluminescent material in the presence of Jframe0aggregates of 3,3-di(gamma-sulfopropyl)-5,5-dichlorotiamonomethincyanine triethylammonium salt. During the studying of new organic light-emitting diode structures, in which the polyaniline/J-aggregates polymeric composite forms both recombination and emitting layers, a polyaniline intrinsic electroluminescence spectrum is obtained. The electroluminescence band completely coincides with the polyaniline photoluminescence spectrum; it has maximum at 400 nm. The electroluminescence mechanism in the studied nanocomposites is discussed.
