A study of the UHV-deposited mixed phase of tetramethoxypyrene (TMP) and TCNQ has been performed using UPS, X-ray-diffraction, and infrared spectroscopy. Formation of a new intermolecular compound is evident from the appearance of new reflexes in XRD (d1=0.911 nm, d2=0.684 nm). In UPS characteristic shifts of the level positions indicate a charge transfer from TMP to TCNQ, being suggested also by the softening of the CN stretching vibration of TCNQ visible in IR spectroscopy (shift by 7 cm−1). The size of the level shift is similar to shifts observed for the acceptor-donor pair hexaketo-/hexamethoxycoronene. In SEM and AFM micro crystals with sizes in the sub-micrometer range are visible, similarly as previously found for BEDT-TTF / TCNQ [1]. A DFT calculation serves as guideline for interpretation of the spectra. Project funded via Transregio SFB TR49 and Graduate School of Excellence MAINZ.
