Deposit morphology deposition rate effect

In Fig. 1(b) we present an effective field-effect mobility vs. pentacene layer thickness in the samples fabricated by the deposition rate 0.05 nm/min. We see that at such low growth rates the charge transport mechanisms evolve differently than at the elevated growth rates. The most prominent feature is marked plateau in mobility at the pentacene layer thickness range between 3 nm and 10 nm. The differences in the electronic transport are reflected also in the pentacene morphology near the metal/OS interface.
