Abstract We present a few unique animal-like fractal patterns in ionized-cluster-beam deposited fullerene tetracyanoquinodimethane thin films. The fractal patterns consisting of animal-like aggregates such as “fishes” and “quasi-seahorses” have been characterized by transmission electron microscopy. The results indicate that the small aggregates of the animal-like body are composed of many single crystals whose crystalline directions are generally different. The formation of the fractal patterns can be attributed to the cluster-diffusion-limited aggregation.
