Solution shearing can deposit organic semiconductor thin films with large, aligned crystals from a range of materials. Top‐contact transistors fabricated on solution‐sheared thin films outperform equivalent devices fabricated through drop‐casting. Our facile, versatile, and scalable technique requires small amounts of semiconductor material and can be used for large‐area device fabrication, or as a rapid screening tool for high‐mobility compounds.
