Organic molecules are capable to functionalize semiconductor surfaces. Therefore it is essential to understand the resulting structure of the organic molecules and the semiconductor surfaces. To get some insight into the question how this depends on the molecule properties and the substrate surface, we investigated the dependence of the number of double bonds whithin hydrocarbons to the adsorption process. We have studied the structural configuration of three different GaAs(001) surface reconstructions occurring with Cyclopentene (C5H8) and 1,4-Cyclohexadiene (C6H8) adsorbed on them. This was studied by reflectance anisotropy spectroscopy (RAS), soft X-ray photo electron spectroscopy (SXPS), scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) and LEED. SXPS measurements show clear new contributions in the As3d and C1s core levels. Additionally the RAS line shape changed significantly for the surface related features. This indicates a bonding between C5H8 (C6H8) and the top-layer dangling bonds. STM measurments support these results. Based on these experiments we can derive possible structure models for the bonding configuration.
