We report the independent determination of the scaling exponents α, β and 1/z in highly ordered thin films of the organic molecule diindenoperylene (DIP) deposited on SiO2 under UHV-conditions [1]. Non-contact AFM, x-ray reflectivity, and diffuse x-ray scattering were employed. The surface width displays power law scaling over more than two orders of magnitude in film thickness. We obtained α = 0.684 ± 0.06, β = 0.748 ± 0.05 and 1/z = 0.92 ± 0.20. Exceeding the random deposition limit βRD = 0.5 and commonly expected values of 1/z, the derived exponents point to an unusually rapid growth of vertical roughness and lateral correlations. We suggest that they could be related to lateral inhomogeneities arising from the formation of grain boundaries between tilt-domains in the early stages of growth [2].
