Thermal scanning lithography is used to pattern semiconducting nanoribbon‐like pentacene structures with ultrahigh spatial resolution onto arbitrary substrates in air. The method allows control of the pentacene crystal growth direction and domain‐size distribution. By combining these quasi‐one‐dimensional nanoribbon‐like structures with conductive electrodes and a suitable gate dielectric, functional p‐channel transistors are demonstrated.
