Abstract
Application of the method of quantum-mechanical calculations allowed the determination of the reorganization energy of the molecules of tetracene and p-quaterphenyl and the estimation of the transfer rate integral between neighbouring molecules present in the solid state. Comparison of the transfer rates for holes with the values of the mobility, obtained experimentally for the polycrystalline tetracene layers and p-quaterphenyl layers vaporized in the vacuum in the similar conditions indicate that the molecule’s structure possess the dominate impact on the conductivity of the thin layers of these compounds.
