Abstract

In order to investigate the capabilities and limitations of organic semiconductor devices high-quality single crystals of these materials have been grown and their properties have been investigated. The observation of the Integer and Fractional Quantum Hall effect in organic semiconductors reveals the similarity to conventional inorganic semiconductor materials, such as Si or GaAs. In addition, electronic as well as optoelectronic devices based on such crystals have been prepared leading to the demonstration of ambipolar field-effect transistors and electrically- pumped solid state lasers.
