We have studied the interface formed on polyparaphenylene-vinylene (PPV) thin film by chromium layer deposited by thermal evaporation. Comparison of attenuated total reflection infra-red spectra obtained in pristine and covered PPV films shows that new absorption bands emerge at 687, 1026 and 1392 cm{sup {minus}1} upon chromium deposition. The Cr 3d valence distributions obtained by electron induced x-ray emission spectroscopy with covered sample is shifted towards higher binding energies with regards to metallic chromium. The features found in both experiments are interpreted as the characteristics of a compound in the chromium on polymer interface. {copyright} {ital 1996 American Institute of Physics.}
