Abstract: 

The aromatic core of perylene bisimides can be twisted by chemical substitution with chlorine in the bay-position. An example for this strategy is 1,6,7,10-tetra-chloro-N,N’-dimethyl-perylene-tetracarboxylic-bisimide, Cl₄MePTCDI. This twisting leads to a decrease in directed intermolecular interactions, which causes a decrease in the electronic coupling of the molecules, interesting to be investigated in thin films of this molecular semiconductor. An amorphous solid phase was formed by physical vapor deposition. This amorphous phase showed the tendency to crystallize under ambient conditions as apparent von optical microscopy at the films. The crystallized phase was investigated by atomic force microscopy AFM and optical methods, where a formation of weak excimers was found.
