  1. Abstract Understanding the mechanisms that contribute to conjugated polymer aggregate formation and growth may yield enhanced control of aggregate morphology and functional properties on the mesoscopic scale. In situ optical imaging of the growth of MEH‐PPV aggregates in real time in controlled swollen films shows that growth occurs through multiple mechanisms and is more complex than previously described. Direct evidence is provided for both Ostwald ripening and aggregate coalescence as operative modes of aggregate growth in solvent swollen films. These growth mechanisms have a distinct and strong impact on the evolution of morphological order of growing aggregates: while Ostwald ripening allows preservation of highly ordered morphology, aggregate coalescence occurs with no preferential orientation, leading to attenuation in degree of ordering.
