Dicyanovinyl-substituted sexithiophenes (DCV6T) are promising photoactive materials [1]. The influence of the film thickness, type of buffer underlayer, and deposition substrate temperature on the morphology of the DCV6T layers is investigated by means of X-ray diffraction and X-ray reflectivity methods. A neat Si wafer or a Si wafer covered by a 15 nm buffer underlayer of fullerene C60 or 9,9-Bis[4-(N,N-bis-biphenyl-4-yl-amino)phenyl]-9H-fluorene (BPAPF) is used as substrate.

The crystalline nature and ordered molecular arrangement of the films are proven down to 6 nm film thickness. With increasing substrate temperature or film thickness, the DCV6T film relaxes, resulting in reducing the interplane distances (from 11.29(5) Å to 10.78(5) Å) closer to the bulk value (10.14(1) Å). Considering the same thickness, the DCV6T film relaxes for growth on Si to BPAPF to C60. Thicker films are characterized by smaller density and higher roughness. A thin (some nm-thick) intermediate layer with linear density-gradient is formed in DCV6T/C60 interface for the films with buffer C60 layer.
