Different types of phthalocyanine (Pcs) are well-known for their potential in a huge variety of applications [1]. Copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) and possible applications for novel organic semiconductor devices have been studied intensively in recent years. For technical applications, interfaces between metals and organic semiconducting materials are of special interest, as they form the contact to the organic semiconductor devices. In this study CuPc and afterwards indium are deposited under ultra high vacuum conditions via molecular beam deposition onto hydrogen passivated Si(111) substrates. In situ Raman Spectroscopy (as described in ref. [2]) prooves to be a versatile and non-destructive technique to investigate the growth process. Cluster formation of indium and surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) effects are observed during the indium deposition process. The analysis of the evolution of the observed Raman features is performed taking density functional theory calculations into account.
