Abstract

The paper presents the results of modeling the surface energy of the (100), (010), (001), (110) and (110) faces of linear acene crystals (naphthalene, anthracene, tetracene and pentacene) using the OPLS force field method and the density functional theory of the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level. The modeling was performed using the single crystal X-ray diffraction refined crystal structures of linear acenes. For anthracene, tetracene and pentacene crystals, the surface energy of the (001) face was experimentally estimated using the contact angle method. Expressions for the critical sizes of crystal nuclei in homogeneous and heterogeneous processes under conditions of growth from vapor and solution were obtained and analyzed using the classical thermodynamic approach and taking into account the anisotropy of the surface energy.
