This work investigates the structure and charge transport characteristics of poly(3‐hexylthiophene) deposited by a vapor deposition method matrix‐assisted pulsed laser evaporation (MAPLE) as a function of molecular weight (MW). This image from Ban Xuan Dong, Peter F. Green and colleagues on page 652 shows the AMF images of MAPLE‐deposited samples (left column) in comparison with the traditional spin‐cast samples (right column) at different MWs (MW increases from top to bottom). In stark contrast to spin‐cast samples, MAPLE‐deposited samples do not exhibit MWs dependence behavior. All MAPLE‐deposited samples shown similar globular morphology which originates from the laser ablation mechanism of the MAPLE deposition method. (DOI: 10.1002/polb.24588 )
