A new strategy for control of the in‐plane orientation of pentacene is introduced using nanometer‐scale periodic groove patterns as an alignment layer. Compared to pentacene films that are not aligned, an enhanced field effect mobility of 1.67 cm 2 V −1 s −1 has been achieved when the optimal π‐orbital overlap direction is parallel to the direction of the current flow.
