Structural and optical properties of self-organized surface structures on rubrene single crystals — •Rainer Stöhr1, Gareth Beirne2, Peter Michler2, Jörg Wrachtrup1, and Jens Pflaum1 — 13. Physikalisches Institut, Univ. Stuttgart,Germany — 2IHFG, Univ. Stuttgart, Germany
On the surface of rubrene single crystals high hole mobilities up to 15 cm2/Vs have been observed making this material interesting for organic device applications. However, the optical properties of rubrene single crystals are yet barely analysed.
We present first structural and optical studies on sublimation grown rubrene single crystals with self-organized pyramidal microstructures on the (001) surfaces. From OMBD growth at various conditions we conclude on the stabilization mechanisms of these crystallographically aligned structures.
Measuring the time- and locally-resolved micro-photoluminescence at various positions on the structured rubrene (001) surface, four peaks could be identified in the wavelength range between 500nm and 900nm. The generated microstructures on the crystal surface enhanced the peak intensities by up to an order of magnitude. A clear dependence between structure size and enhancement could be shown. The results are carefully discussed by assigning these peaks to various exciton species with respect to studies currently reported in literature [1].
