We present a scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy study at the solid-liquid interface of hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronenes (HBC) in different three-dimensional stacked geometries, namely covalently bound as HBC-cyclophanes and physisorbed in double layers consisting either of HBC only or of a mixture of HBC and an electron acceptor. Tunneling bias dependent imaging and tunneling spectroscopy are applied to demonstrate the sensitivity of the electronic coupling between the HBCs to the relative orientation of the molecules with respect to each other.
