N2 - The flexibility and elasticity of individual copper phthalocyanine nanowire crystals and the influence of strain on the field-effect mobility are investigated. The Young's modulus of the crystal nanowires is about 1.9 GPa. Statistical analysis of many devices shows that the bent-nanowire crystals have higher charge-carrier mobility than their straight counterparts.
