Abstract
Biphenyl-4,4'-dithiol was deposited as a stacked molecular layer onto several kinds of substrates by a molecular beam deposition method. It was found that both the gold thin film and the potassium bromide (KBr) single crystal were effective substrates for the control of the molec ular orientation and also that the lattice constants of the substrate were responsible for the control of crystallinity of biphenyl-4,4'-dit hiol thin films.
