A simple solution processing method was developed to grow large-scale well-aligned single crystals including 6,13-bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl)pentacene (TIPS-pentacene), anthracene, tetracene, perylene, C 60 and tetracyanoquinodimethane. As pinned by a solid needle, a droplet of semiconductor solution dried into single-crystal arrays on a 1 cm × 2 cm substrate. TIPS-pentacene was used to demonstrate the fabrication of hundreds of field-effect transistors (FETs) with the hole mobility as high as 6.46 cm 2 V −1 s −1 . As such, this work provides a high-throughput, yet efficient approach for statistical examination on the FET performance of organic single crystals.

Singlet fission (SF) is a spin-conserving process converting 1 singlet exciton into 2 triplet excitons. This exciton multiplication mechanism offers an attractive route to solar cells that circumvent the single-junction Shockley–Queisser limit. However, it remains unclear how intermolecular coupling, which is subject to the aggregation extent in thin-film morphology, controls SF pathways and dynamics. The prototype molecule 6,13-bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl)-pentacene (TIPS-pentacene) has been extensively studied to investigate SF mechanisms. However, previous literature reports have presented divergent SF mechanisms and pathways in TIPS-pentacene films. In this study, solvent vapor annealing treatment is used to deliberately adjust the aggregation extent in TIPS-pentacene films. This enables us to reproduce various SF pathways reported in the literature under the same experimental conditions, with the only variation being the level of aggregation. These results shed light on the crucial role that molecular aggregation plays in modulating both the SF mechanism and pathway and reconciles the previously contentious SF mechanisms and pathways reported in TIPS-pentacene films. Our study offers substantial insights into the understanding of the SF mechanism and provides a potential avenue for future control of SF pathways in accordance with specific application requirements.

Artificial photonic synapses, owing to their high sensitivity, low power consumption, and integration of sensing and memory, have aroused comprehensive discussion and have been developed into devices used as the new sensors for the Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial neural networks (ANNs). Colossal energy consumption may be one of the factors hindering the development of neuromorphic computing. Herein, ternary component organic array films of TIPS-pentacene, polystyrene, and CsPbBr3 perovskite quantum dots (QDs) are effectively developed to fabricate photonic synaptic transistors. The patterned organic thin films prepared by the solution processes can be distinctly controlled in the crystallographic orientation using a pre-patterned-guided crystallizing strategy and the corresponding transistor of TIPS-pentacene with mobility over 1 cm2 V−1 s−1 is successfully achieved. On this basis, the ternary composite film exhibits synaptic behaviours from short-term plasticity (STP) to long-term plasticity (LTP), including paired-pulse facilitation (PPF), spike-time-dependent plasticity (STDP), spike-number-dependent plasticity (SNDP), spike-frequency dependent plasticity (SFDP) and light-potentiation/electric-depression. Benefiting from the improved material compatibility and film-forming properties of small molecule semiconductors and perovskite QDs with polymer polystyrene, our synapses still exhibit prominent synaptic features at a low power consumption of 0.036 fJ. Utilizing time-dependent plasticity, the synaptic device stimulated by a series of light signals realizes wireless optical communication. In addition, the pattern recognition function by ANNs is verified. This work provides a feasible fabricating path to patterned array film-based photonic synapses for the next generation human–computer interaction sensors.
