Ordered growth of thin PTCDA layers is mainly observed on metals but recent reports (S. Yim et al. J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 15, (2003)) have shown that some molecules also show ordered layers on unpassivated III-V semiconductor surfaces. In this work we investigate the adsorption of PTCDA on gallium-polar GaN(0001) with different methods. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) shows that the molecules are not dissociating after deposition, because the peak area ratios (including the shake-up’s) for the perylene to carboxylic C1s feature is near the expected ratio for the intact molecule. Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spot profile analyzing low energy electron diffraction (SPA-LEED) measurements reveal an island growth mode. For monolayer equivalent deposits, the near edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEAFS) data of the C K-edge exhibit no polarization dependence indicating a disordered mixture of molecules in upstanding and down-lying geometry. However, for multilayer equivalent deposits a polarization dependence is observed which suggests a flat-lying geometry of the molecules. These findings are in good agreement with high-resolution STM and SPA-LEED data which reveal lateral ordering, compatible with a bulk-like configuration, within the islands.
