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