摘要：

We observe bandlike transport in pentacene and functionalized pentacene thin films using time-resolved terahertz pulse spectroscopy. The measured transient photoconductivity exhibits fast (<400 fs) photogeneration of mobile charge carriers and reveals a transient carrier mobility that increases as the temperature decreases from 300 K down to 10 K, indicative of bandlike transport over subpicosecond time scales. A wavelength-independent photoconductive signal is observed. The transient photoconductivity in the thin-film samples exhibits a single-exponential decay, whereas a power-law decay is seen in single-crystal samples.
