Face-on stacking and enhanced out-of-plane hole mobility in graphene-templated copper phthalocyanine.

Efficient out-of-plane charge transport is required in vertical device architectures, such as organic solar cells and organic light emitting diodes. Here, we show that graphene, transferred onto different technologically-relevant substrates, can be used to induce face-on molecular stacking and improve out-of-plane hole transport in copper phthalocyanine thin films.
