The adsorption of dimetacyano-azobenzene (DMC) evaporated onto Cu(100) and Au(111), as well as on CoO/Ag(100), was studied at different substrate temperatures in order to ascertain the influence of substrate and coverage. Angle-dependent NEXAFS spectroscopy was used to resolve the adsorption geometry of the molecules. By XPS the formation of additional bonds between the molecules and surface was investigated. For the adsorption on Au(111) at room temperature (RT), and on Cu(100) at 150 K, we find the molecules physisorbed in a planar conformation parallel to the surface. In the case of molecules adsorbed at 100 K on CoO/Ag(100), we observe a change in the angle dependence of the π* resonances of the N-K edge NEXAFS. After annealing the Cu(100) substrate to RT, the angle dependence and intensity of the π* resonances change significantly. From the peak assignment derived from DFT-based simulation of the NEXAFS spectra, we conclude that chemisorption takes place at the azo-nitrogen on Cu(100) at RT, whereas a mixed phase of physisorbed and chemisorbed molecules is found on CoO/Ag(100) at 100 K, and on Cu(100) at 150 K. In contrast, only the physisorbed phase was found for DMC on Au(111) at RT. This work has been supported by Sfb 658.
