In the wake of the increasing importance of organic electronics, a more in-depth understanding of the early stages of organic film growth is indispensable. In this review a survey of several rod-like and plate-like organic molecules (p-quaterphenyl, p-sexiphenyl, hexaazatriphenylene-hexacarbonitrile (HATCN), rubicene, indigo) deposited on various application relevant substrates (gold, silver, mica, silicon dioxide) is given. The focus is particularly put on the application of thermal desorption spectroscopy to shed light on the kinetics and energetics of the molecule-substrate interaction. While each adsorption system reveals a manifold of features that are specific for the individual system, one can draw some general statements on the early stages of organic film formation from the available datasets. Among the important issues in this context is the formation of wetting layers and the dewetting as a function of the substrate surface conditions, organic film thickness and temperature.

以热解吸光谱为特征的有机薄膜生长的初始阶段

随着有机电子的重要性日益增加，对有机薄膜生长的早期阶段进行更深入的了解是必不可少的。在这篇综述中，对沉积在各种应用相关基材（金、银、云母、硅）上的几种棒状和板状有机分子（对四联苯、对六联苯、六氮杂苯并苯并六甲腈 (HATCN)、rubicene、靛蓝）进行了调查。二氧化碳）。重点特别放在热解吸光谱的应用上，以阐明分子-底物相互作用的动力学和能量学。虽然每个吸附系统都揭示了单个系统特有的多种特征，但人们可以从可用的数据集中得出一些关于有机膜形成早期阶段的一般性陈述。
