For technical reasons the number of authors shown on this cover page is limited to 10 maximum. September 12, 2006; In Final Form: December 6, 2006 We have grown the charge-transfer salt of the electron acceptor 7,7,8, and the electron donor tetracene using physical vapor transport. The crystal structure was solved by singlecrystal X-ray diffraction and the symmetry was found to be triclinic (space group P1 h). The 1:1 complex grows by alternating face to face stacking of tetracene and TCNQ molecules. Calculations on the electronic band structure show that the tetracene-TCNQ complex is an indirect band gap semiconductor and provide insight in the conductive properties of tetracene-TCNQ.
