The research of the last decade proved that organic materials can be used as a low cost alternative to inorganic semiconductors. However, optimizing the performance of the organic devices remains a challenging task, as the electronic and optical properties of the organic layers strongly depend on the preparation conditions and molecular orientation. It was already shown [1] that the molecular orientation can be controlled using an organic template layer.
In this work we demonstrate the template effect of 3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA) on metal-free phthalocyanine H2Pc molecules studied by spectroscopic ellipsometry. From the differences [2] between in-plane and out-of-plane components of the dielectric function, the molecular orientation was deduced. It was found that the strong interaction of the PTCDA π orbitals with the H2Pc π orbitals modifies the growth mode of H2Pc molecules on PTCDA with respect to the growth on glass and oxidised silicon substrates.
