Elemental Te displays a wide variety of nanoscale morphologies of vapor‐deposited films, depending on the substrate surface and temperature. These morphologies are correlated to field‐effect mobilities in transistors made with Te as the lone semiconductor or from Te‐organic multilayer semiconductors. Two examples of morphologies and transistor output characteristics, i.e., on a room temperature oxide and heated organic, are shown in the figure.
