abstract = {In this work we investigate variations of a homo-molecular
layer of CuPc adsorbed onthe Ag(111) surface, which is a
well known example in research on organic electronicswhere
the structural and electronic properties at the
metal-organic interface are of interest.Three modifications
of the mentioned system are realized by addition of a
secondlayer, exchange of the substrate, and addition of a
second type of organic molecules.Measurements on the lateral
structure are performed by STM and LEED. For experimentson
the electronic structure, STM-based differential conductance
spectroscopy andangle-resolved PES are applied.For a second
layer of CuPc on top of the first layer of CuPc on Ag(111)
we observe aweaker interaction between the two molecular
layers than between the substrate and thefirst molecular
layer. This allows molecules in the second layer to adsorb
in an inclinedconfiguration in contrast to the flat lying
geometry of molecules in the first layer. TheHOMO of CuPc
shifts towards larger binding energies with increasing
coverage. The(former) LUMO, which in the first layer is
weakly occupied by charge donation fromthe silver substrate,
is unoccupied in the second layer because of a significantly
weakerinteraction with the underlying material.Experiments
on a dense, closed layer of CuPc molecules on the Ag(110)
surface reveala stronger effect of this substrate on the
layer formation than the Ag(111) surface.The stronger
interacting substrate of lower symmetry dominates the
formation of thelateral molecular arrangement interspersed
by dislocation lines where the intermolecularinteraction
breaks through. The initially 4-fold symmetry of the
molecules is reduced to2-fold due to a combination of
geometric and electronic effects. The part of the
moleculethat is is aligned with a more acute angle to the
Ag[001] direction is slightly bent down,interacting stronger
with the substrate and receiving charge donated by the
silver. Bythis asymmetry the original degeneracy of the two
parts of the LUMO is lifted.Laterally mixed hetero-organic
layers of CuPc and PTCDA on Ag(110) show thestronger
influence of the substrate on the formation of ordered
structures compared tomixed ordered layers on Ag(111). A
tendency to form complex packing motifs is observedand we
investigate two different structures that are described by
large unit cells comprising5 and 9 molecules, respectively.
Measurements on the local electronic structure aredominated
by signals from PTCDA molecules and we observe that the
PTCDA LUMOis occupied to at least the same degree as it is
in a homo-molecular PTCDA layer. TheCuPc LUMO is unoccupied
indicating a molecule-molecule interaction with an
unequalcharge distribution for the two types of molecules.},
