The temperature dependence of the photoluminescence properties of a thin film of poly[2-methoxy-5-(2(')-ethylhexyloxy)-p-phenylene-vinylene], MEH-PPV, fabricated by spin coating, is analyzed. The evolution with temperature of the peak energy of the purely electronic transition, of the first vibronic band, of the effective conjugation length, and of the Huang-Rhys factors are discussed. The asymmetric character of the pure electronic transition peak and the contribution of the individual vibrational modes to the first vibronic band line shape are considered by a model developed by Cury et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 121, 3836 (2004)]. The temperature dependence of the Huang-Rhys factors of the main vibrational modes pertaining to the first vibronic band allows us to identify two competing vibrational modes. These results show that the electron coupling to different vibrational modes depends on temperature via reduction of thermal disorder.
