Amorphous-to-crystalline phase transformation of thin film rubrene.
We report on the amorphous-to-crystalline phase transformation of rubrene thin films. The crystallization of the organic thin films displays disk-like domains whose nucleation and growth follow phase transformation kinetics well-established for inorganic materials under certain time and temperature conditions. We understood that the crystallization of amorphous rubrene thin film shows site-satu...
متن کاملHomoepitaxy of Crystalline Rubrene Thin Films.
The smooth surface of crystalline rubrene films formed through an abrupt heating process provides a valuable platform to study organic homoepitaxy. By varying growth rate and substrate temperature, we are able to manipulate the onset of a transition from layer-by-layer to island growth modes, while the crystalline thin films maintain a remarkably smooth surface (less than 2.3 nm root-mean-squar...
متن کاملFirst Principles Study of Initial Stage of Ni Thin Film Growth on a TiO2(110) Surface
The bonding structure and binding character for the initial stage of thin film growth of Ni on a rutile(110) surface are studied using first principles density functional theory. Our results show that, in the first monolayer, Ni atoms are preferentially adsorbed on top of bridging oxygen atoms, and upon secondary surface oxygen. The bond strength between Ni adatom and substrate is much stronger...
متن کاملThe kinetic MC modelling of reversible pattern formation in initial stages of thin metallic film growth on crystalline substrates
The results of kinetic MC simulations of the reversible pattern formation during the adsorption of mobile metal atoms on crystalline substrates are discussed. Pattern formation, simulated for submonolayer metal coverage, is characterized in terms of the joint correlation functions for a spatial distribution of adsorbed atoms. A wide range of situations, from the almost irreversible to strongly ...
متن کاملSimulation of vapor-phase deposition and growth of a pentacene thin film on C60 (001).
Current research in organic electronics is clearly evidencing that the strive to produce efficient organic electronic devices requires high performance materials that can only be realized through a rational design [Special11]. Although polymer-based systems are at the moment the most appealing for market applications, mainly because of their solution processability, small molecule-based devices...
