Ordered growth of 3,4,9,10-perylene-tetracarboxylic-dianhydride (PTCDA) on Ag(111) partially covered by one or two monolayers KBr was investigated by noncontact AFM with molecular resolution. Different adsorption patterns are found on the pure substrate, the one covered by a single monolayer, and the one covered by two monolayers KBr. Simulations with an extended Ising-type model reproduce these experimental patterns very well [1]. The adsorbate-adsorbate and the adsorbate-substrate interaction parameters obtained from the simulation are discussed in respect to the interactions at the Ag(111)|KBr interface.
