In the fabrication processes of organic semiconductor devices, n-type doping of organic thin films still remains challenging. Intercalated alkali metals act as electron donors and thus increase the electrical conductivity of transition metal phthalocyanines [1]. In this study, manganese phthalocyanine (MnPc) thin films (5–100 nm) are prepared by organic molecular beam deposition (OMBD) under ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions. Doping is achieved via subsequent potassium (K) evaporation afterwards. Electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) [2] and in situ spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) reveal that the optical properties of MnPc change dramatically during K doping. Finally, in situ online monitoring of the vibrational properties provides deep insight into the doping dynamics. In this work, the results obtained by EELS, SE, and Raman spectroscopy are compared, showing a formation of consecutive potassium doped MnPc phases with distinct optical and vibrational properties.
