abstract
The electrical properties of devices based on an organic compound result from the structure of the molecules, their solid-state packing, efficiency of charge injection from the electrodes, and the fabrication procedures. The length scales of interest can also vary widely, ranging from a few nanometers in the case of charge transport through single molecules or two-dimensional molecular ensembles, to tens of micrometers in devices focusing on thin films or molecular crystals. The work outlined in this thesis examines the characteristics of electronic devices at both extremes by incorporating organic molecules in molecular rectifiers and organic field-effect transistors (OFETs).
