The in situ film thickness during vacuum deposition of organic-molecular semiconductors using quartz microbalance was analyzed. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used to evaluate total film volume on substrate. H2-TPP films completely covered substrate surface for relatively high thickness. The proportional error in evaluation of film thickness was observed to depend only on film density below critical value. The results show that film density of 4T films on silica were placed at equivalent positions with respect to material source.

Abstract
The in situ film thickness during vacuum deposition of organic-molecular semiconductors using quartz microbalance was analyzed. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used to evaluate total film volume on substrate. H2-TPP films completely covered substrate surface for relatively high thickness. The proportional error in evaluation of film thickness was observed to depend only on film density below critical value. The results show that film density of 4T films on silica were placed at equivalent positions with respect to material source.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
