In article number 2002355, Pichaya Pattanasattayavong and co‐workers demonstrate how the coordination of diethyl sulfide solvent molecules influences copper(I) thiocyanate nanoscale crystallites. A simple antisolvent treatment improves the crystallinity and film uniformity, leading to a fivefold increase in the hole mobility, presenting an effective route to enhancing device performance of the increasingly technologically relevant copper(I) thiocyanate.
