Abstract

A novel cost-efficient and facile technique, molecular crystal lithography, to fabricate nanogap electrodes efficiently is reported. The gap width of the electrodes can be tuned from ∼9 nm to several micrometers. Organic field-effect transistors based on the nanogap electrodes all exhibit a high performance, indicating the effectiveness and practicability of molecular crystal lithography for mass production of nanogap electrodes.
