Abstract
The air-gap field-effect technique enabled realization of the intrinsic (not limited by static disorder) polaronic transport on the surface of rubrene () crystals over a wide temperature range. The signatures of this intrinsic transport are the anisotropy of the carrier mobility, , and the growth of with cooling. Anisotropy of vanishes in the activation regime at low temperatures, where the transport is dominated by shallow traps. The deep traps, introduced by x-ray radiation, increase the field-effect threshold without affecting , an indication that the filled traps do not scatter polarons.
