Island size evolution and molecular diffusion during growth of organic thin films followed by time-resolved specular and off-specular scattering — Christian Frank1, Jiří Novák1, Rupak Banerjee1, •Alexander Gerlach1, Frank Schreiber1, Alexei Vorobiev2, and Stefan Kowarik3 — 1Institut für Angewandte Physik, Universität Tübingen, Germany — 2European Synchrotron Radiation Facility, Grenoble, France — 3Institut für Physik, Humboldt Universität Berlin, Germany
We report on a combined off-specular and specular X-ray scattering growth study of ultra-thin films of the prototypical organic semiconductor diindenoperylene (DIP, C32H16) [1,2]. We investigate the evolution of the in-plane correlation length and the growth kinetics of the films including their dependence on the substrate temperature and the growth rate. We observe a temperature dependent collective re-arrangement of DIP molecules from the thin-film to the bulk phase, which can be rationalized by incorporating a thickness-dependent out-of-plane lattice parameter. We further observe that the nucleation behavior of DIP changes from the 1st to the 2nd monolayer, which we relate to a difference in the diffusion of the molecules.
