Unusual energy shifts in resonant photoemission spectra of organic model molecules.
We study the electronic structure of zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc) and 1,4-octa-decyl substituted zinc phthalocyanine [(Dec)(8)PcZn] thin films (approximately 6-15 nm) using resonant photoemission spectroscopy and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) at room temperature and at liquid He temperature. From XAS we conclude that the probability amplitude of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital is located predominantly at the inner C and N atoms of the molecules. Nonlinear energy shifts in resonant photoemission were observed; large shifts are explained by reduced electrical conductivity of inhomogeneously oriented molecules.
