Scanned-energy mode photoelectron diffraction (PhD) is a well-established method to determine quantitatively the local structure of adsorbates at surfaces. Here we describe its application to adsorption of vanadyl phthalocyanine (VOPc) on Au(111) which was used as a model system for vanadyl species (V=O) on the clean V2O3 surface.
VOPc was dosed at 130∘C on the clean Au(111) surface and a coverage of approximately 0,015ML was reached which is half of that found by STM experiments (Hipps et. al.). O 1s and V 2p scanned-energy mode photoelectron diffraction has been used to investigate the adsorption structure of VOPc. The V=O vanadyl bond is found to point out of the surface with a bondlength of 1.60+-0.04 A. Relative to bulk VOPc, the V atom is pulled down into the approximately planar region defined by the N and C atoms by 0.52 (+0.14/-0.10) A.
