Evidence for temperature-dependent electron band dispersion in pentacene.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Evidence for temperature-dependent electron band dispersion in a pentacene thin film polymorph on graphite is provided by angle- and energy-dependent ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy. The bands derived from the highest occupied molecular orbital exhibit dispersion of approximately 190 meV at room temperature, and approximately 240 meV at 120 K. Intermolecular electronic coupling in pentacene thin films is thus confirmed to be dependent on temperature and possibly crystal structure, as suggested by additional infrared absorption measurements.

Single-Crystal Pentacene Valence-Band Dispersion and Its Temperature Dependence.
The electronic structures of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) or the HOMO-derived valence bands dominate the transport nature of positive charge carriers (holes) in organic semiconductors. In the present study, the valence-band structures of single-crystal pentacene and the temperature dependence of their energy-momentum dispersion relations are successfully demonstrated using angl...
متن کاملAnalysis of charge transport in a polycrystalline pentacene thin film transistor by temperature and gate bias dependent mobility and conductance
The gate bias and temperature dependent field-effect mobility and conductance of a polycrystalline pentacene thin film transistor TFT were analyzed to study the charge transport in the material. Since both heating and cooling can obviously change the film morphology, a relatively narrow temperature range was adopted to rule out the possible influence of structure variation on the device charact...
متن کاملElectronic properties of oligoacenes from first principles
We present the electronic band structures and dielectric tensors for a series of crystalline linear oligoacenes—i.e., naphthalene, anthracene, tetracene, and pentacene—calculated within the density functional framework. The band dispersions, the effective charge carrier masses, and the optical response are discussed as a function of the oligomer length compared to previously reported calculatio...

متن کاملElectron-phonon interaction at the Si(111)-7 x 7 surface.
It is shown that electron-phonon interaction provides a natural explanation for the unusual band dispersion of the metallic surface states at the Si(111)-(7 x 7) surface. Angle-resolved photoemission reveals a discontinuity of the adatom band at a binding energy close to the dominant surface phonon mode at h(omega0) = 70 meV. This mode has been assigned to adatom vibrations by molecular dynamic...
