The fact, that the transition metal ion in the central cavity of the Pc's can have a magnetic moment is a characteristic feature of TMPc's, and therefore these phthalocyanines can also show fascinating magnetic properties. We have determined the energy level alignment at interfaces between various transition metal phthalocyanines and gold using photoemission spectroscopy. Our results demonstrate that the transition metal center has a strong influence on the electronic properties of the phthalocyanine films as well as their interfaces with gold. This offers a route to adjust the hole injection barrier via the choice of otherwise equivalent molecular organic semiconductors. In particular, the interfaces MnPc/Au and CoPc/Au are characterized by a small hole injection barrier, which would be advantageous for applications. These are directly related to the presence of metal 3d states closest to the chemical potential; a fact that is also reflected in smaller ionization potentials for MnPc and CoPc as compared to other phthalocyanines.
