Abstract

The crystallinity of an organic semiconductor film determines the efficiency of charge transport in electronic devices. This report presents a micro-to-nanoscale investigation on the crystal growth of fluorinated 5,11-bis(triethylgermylethynyl)anthradithiophene (diF-TEG-ADT) and its implication for the electrical behavior of organic field-effect transistors (OFETs). diF-TEG-ADT exhibits remarkable self-assembly through spin-cast preparation, with highly aligned edge-on stacking creating a fast hole-conducting channel for OFETs.
