Abstract
Anomalous electrical conductivity phenomena have been observed in thin tetracene films sandwiched between metal electrodes. The resistivity of the tetracene layer is observed to change from a high value (``off state'') to a low value (``on state'') upon the application of voltage. In the ``on state'' the resistivity is both temperature insensitive and photoinsensitive. A preliminary interpretation of this behavior is presented.Keywords
