The structural and functional properties of organic heterojunctions play a vitally important role in the operation of organic devices, but their properties are difficult to measure directly due to the buried interfaces that are typically formed. We have grown model heterojunctions consisting of two monolayer-thick organic semiconductors and used these bilayers to explore the two-dimensional dynamics of excitons. The heterostructures are formed by sequential deposition of monolayers of perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic-3,4,9,10-diimide (PTCDI) and fullerene (C60) on hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). The morphology of these bilayers was characterized using atomic force microscopy and showed clear differences in the C60 growth kinetics on hBN and PTCDI. The variation in the fluorescence of PTCDI-C60 heterostructures with increasing fullerene coverage showed a reduction in intensity consistent with exciton diffusion and quenching. We use a simple model for the intensity dependence to determine the two-dimensiona...
