title: Atomically flat, large-sized, two-dimensional organic nanocrystals.
abstract: Large-sized, 2D single crystals of perylene are grown by both solution-cast and physical vapor transport methods. The crystals have a atomically flat parallelogram morphology and the aspect ratios of the lateral extension compared to the thickness are up to 10(3) . The atomically flat feature leads to good interface contact, making a single-crystal field-effect transistor with higher mobility. The mobility of atomically flat crystals can be 10(3) -10(4) times higher than rough crystals.
