Pentacene, Perylene and CuPc are widely used organic semiconductors in organic light emitting diode (OLED) and organic thin film transistor (OTFT) applications. It has been well established that the transport properties of these materials are strongly dependent upon the way they are grown as organic thin films. One of the reasons why these materials are so popular is the fact that their electronic properties, such as their mobilities and barrier to charge injection ratios, can be altered and improved by changing their morphologies. In this talk we will present our recent results on the different growth modes of these substances on different substrates and try to relate their observed electronic and transport properties to their morphologies and account for their favorable features.
