Controlling the molecular growth of organic semiconductors is an important issue to optimize the performance of organic devices. Conjugated molecules, used as building blocks, have an anisotropic shape and also anisotropic physical properties like charge transport or luminescence. The main challenge is to grow highly crystalline layers with molecules of defined orientation. The higher the crystallinity, the closer these properties reach their full intrinsic potential, while the orientation determines the physical properties of the film. Herein we show that the molecular orientation and growth can be steered by the surface chemistry, which tunes the molecule-substrate interaction. In addition, the oxygen reconstruction of the surface, demonstrates the flexibility of the organic molecules to adopt a given surface corrugation and their unique possibility to release stress by tilting.
