Abstract: An organic single-crystalline heterojunction composite film is provided. The organic single-crystalline heterojunction composite film comprises at least one organic single-crystalline efficiently coupled unit. The organic single-crystalline efficiently coupled unit constructed by two organic single-crystalline thin films laminated together, with highly efficient lamination. The organic single-crystalline heterojunction composite film of the present disclosure has multiple advantages, such as highly ordered molecular arrangement, few defects, long exciton diffusion length, and excellent charge carrier transportation in the single-crystalline layer, moreover, integration of optoelectronic function and flexibility could be realized. The preparation method of organic single-crystalline heterojunction composite film is also provided.

Abstract: An organic single-crystalline semiconductor structure is provided. The organic single-crystalline semiconductor structure composes substrate, growth-assisted layer, electrodes, organic single-crystalline semiconductor layer. The growth-assisted layer deposited on the substrate from bottom to top. The organic single-crystalline semiconductor layer is defined as the organic semiconductor single-crystal thin film which basically maintained its original morphology after crossing the electrodes. The organic single-crystalline semiconductor thin film could realize full-covering over the arbitrary-shaped or arbitrary-sized bottom-contacted substrates, and the nearly ideal morphology on industrialized scale could be achieved. This organic single-crystalline semiconductor structure could be applied as key part in organic field-effect transistor, in order to realized fast transportation of charge carriers.
