The arrangement and the orientation of organic molecules are crucial for charge transport properties and thus essential for the efficiency of devices based on these materials. Mechanisms for the charge transport in organic materials depend significantly on the temperature. As an example, the localisation energy based on electron-phonon coupling decreases significantly at low temperature, as a consequence different transport channels (band-like or hopping) are possible. In this work we investigate whether such phenomena are accompanied by changes of the intermolecular interaction and the orientation of the molecules. We observe an increase of the molecular ordering of zinc(II)phthalocyanine at low temperatures (liquid He) in particular on polycrystalline Au using polarisation dependent near edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (NEXAFS). This can be understood by an increase of the intermolecular interaction and by a decrease of the electron-phonon coupling. Resonant photoemission data for C1s show a weaker participator resonance intensity at low temperature, which is discussed in terms of different de-excitation channels.
