“…The persistence of the surface-state in the case of DIP deposition reflects the weakness of the molecule-substrate interaction, as observed with most other organic molecules such as, e.g., PTCDA, CuPc, FePc, HBC, NTCDI, BDG, 6T, DH6T, pentacene, etc. [9,23,31,[34][35][36][37][38][39] A much stronger (and rarer) interaction becomes evident from the data for the F 16 CuPc layers. It is plausible that this interaction arises from a partial charge transfer from Au to F 16 CuPc.…”
