摘要
Charge transport in pentacene thin films is investigated using terahertz electromodulation spectroscopy. Although the material is highly polycrystalline, a hole mobility of about 20 cm(2)/Vs is found, which exceeds the mobility obtained in DC measurements by orders of magnitude. The high AC mobility results from a motion of charge carriers, which is not hindered by grain boundaries. An upper limit of m(h)* approximate to 0.8 m(e) is deduced for the conductivity effective mass of holes in pentacene. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.
