The synthesis of a rigid, planar H-type anthracene derivative is described. Single-crystalline ribbons at micro- and nanometer sizes can be controllably produced and transistors based on an individual ribbon can be fabricated in situ through a newly developed "organic ribbon mask" method, in which the channel length of the transistors can be easily scaled down to sub-micrometer level.

Article Synopsis
- High-quality single crystalline GeSe can enhance the performance of solar cells and electronic devices compared to polycrystalline films.
- Researchers successfully used vapor-liquid-solid growth combined with direct lateral vapor-solid incorporation to produce uniform, large GeSe ribbons with controlled thickness and no defects.
- Electrical tests show that these ribbons have high Hall mobility and potential for applications like catalysis, thanks to their jagged edges when grown from mixed vapors.

Electrically conductive coordination polymers and metal-organic frameworks are attractive emerging electroactive materials for (opto-)electronics. However, developing semiconducting coordination polymers with high charge carrier mobility for devices remains a major challenge, urgently requiring the rational design of ligands and topological networks with desired electronic structures. Herein, we demonstrate a strategy for synthesizing high-mobility semiconducting conjugated coordination polymers (c-CPs) utilizing novel conjugated ligands with symmetry, namely, "4 + 2" phenyl ligands.

Among group IV monochalcogenides, layered GeSe is of interest for its anisotropic properties, 1.3 eV direct band gap, ferroelectricity, high mobility, and excellent environmental stability. Electronic, optoelectronic and photovoltaic applications depend on the development of synthesis approaches that yield large quantities of crystalline flakes with controllable size and thickness.

ConspectusSingle crystals of organic semiconductors (OSCs) are believed to have both high mobility and intrinsic flexibility, making them promising candidates for flexible electronic/optoelectronic applications and being consistently pursued by researchers. The van der Waals force in OSC enables low-temperature solution processing of single crystals, but the relatively weak binding energy brings challenges in forming large, uniform, and defect-free single crystals. To promote the study on OSC single crystals, a generalized method that grows high-quality crystals in an easy-to-handle, time/resource-saving, and repeatable manner is apparently necessary.
