Ballistic Electron Emission Microscopy (BEEM) not only represents an ideal technique to study the electronic transmission at the Schottky-interface between a metal and a semiconductor, but moreover it allows to analyze the ballistic transport through adsorbates on top of a metal. Bismuth (Bi) films with a thickness of 3-4nm were grown on n-doped and p-doped Si(100) and Si(111). Recently we could analyze the ballistic transport of electrons through two different molecular adlayers, PTCDA and C60, deposited on top of the Bi film. In addition the ballistic transport of holes through an adlayer of C60 was studied. All experiments were performed by a modified "Nanoprobe" system (Omicron) providing four STM units which may be operated independently on the same sample. In this case one STM unit was used to contact the metal layer, and other one is operated as a conventional STM at negative or positive tip bias, hence injecting electrons or holes into the sample surface.
