Organic semiconductors have attracted increasing interest, mainly due to their potential optoelectronic applications like organic light emitting diodes and organic solar cells. Optimization of device performance requires the understanding of the underlying structure and growth behavior. Therefore, real-time measurements are particularly powerful since they detect possible changes in the functional properties already during growth. Diindenoperylene (DIP) shows a particularly well defined ordering and promising electronic transport properties together with a highly anisotropic dielectric function [1]. Differential reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), a non-invasive optical technique with high sensitivity, is used to follow the film growth of DIP on glass in the spectral range between 1.4 eV and 3.1 eV. The optical spectra show the well known vibronic progression together with an additional transition, which is related to the coupling between the molecules. The real-time growth experiments show how this additional transition arises during growth, indicating that the intermolecular coupling changes with increasing film thickness, whereas the vibronic progression is only slightly changed.
