STM study of CuPC molecules on Cu(111) and Au(111) — •Stefan Kuck, Andre Wachowiak, Germar Hoffmann, and Roland Wiesendanger — Institut für Angewandte Physik und Zentrum für Mikrostrukturforschung, Universität Hamburg, 20355 Hamburg, Germany

Local probe techniques have proven to be a powerful tool for investigations of growth phenomena and intermolecular orientational order of thin molecular layers and single molecules on a substrate surface. The delicate balance between substrate temperature, molecules and intermolecular interaction determines varieties of observed structures. Using a homebuilt variable temperature STM (30 K - room temperature) we studied the growth of CuPC molecules on the Cu(111) and Au(111) surfaces. Single CuPC molecules prefer two orientations with respect to the underlying substrate lattice [1]. Scanning tunneling spectroscopy measurements reveal the energetic position of the molecular resonances and show the spatial distribution of molecular orbitals.
