Self-organized dithieno [3,2-b:2',3'-d] thiophene-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (A) and dithieno [2,3-b:3',2'-d] thiophene-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (B) films were prepared through solvent-induced order-disorder transition method.The arrangement of the two molecules on substrates were observed by atomic force microscopy (AFM),which demonstrated that A was arranged orderly in a certain angle on mica,while B was flat-flying on mica.The optical and conductance properties in micro region of these two compound films were characterized by UV-vis absorption spectroscopy,fluorescence spectroscopy and conductive atomic force microscopy (C-AFM).The results revealed that the fluorescence and absorption peaks of A had a large red shift in comparison with those of B.The conductance of the J-aggregates for A is three orders magnitude higher than that of B.It is concluded that the large conductance difference mainly comes from different aggregation structures and orientations of these two molecules on substrate.
