Epitaxial van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures of organic and layered materials are demonstrated to create high‐performance organic electronic devices. High‐quality rubrene films with large single‐crystalline domains are grown on h‐BN dielectric layers via vdW epitaxy. In addition, high carrier mobility comparable to free‐standing single‐crystal counterparts is achieved by forming interfacial electrical contacts with graphene electrodes.
