A strong positive feedback between current and temperature occurs at high current densities beyond 100 A/cm2, as predicted by the extended Gaussian disorder model (EGDM) applicable to organic semiconductors. These devices give a perfect setting for studying the heat transport at high power densities because C60 can withstand temperatures above 200ʿ C. Infrared images of the device and detailed numerical simulations of the heat transport demonstrate that the electrical circuit produces a superposition of a homogeneous power dissipation in the active volume and strong heat sources localized at the contact edges ...
