OVER the last years, the adsorption geometries of some large aromatic molecules on metal surfaces could be determined by the normal incidence wave technique (NIXSW). However, NIXSW is rather elaborate and requires synchrotron radiation. In addition, any substrate reconstruction is difficult to access by NIXSW. Hence we investigate whether LEED-IV analysis, the conventional method for the determination of adsorption sites of adsorbates, is suitable for this purpose.
We have chosen PTCDA on Ag(100) as a test systems, because this adsorption geometry had been determined in detail by NIXSW and DFT before [1]. We find reasonable agreement of experimental and theoretical IV curves and support for the surface buckling predicted by DFT. In addition, we discuss current problems of the experiment and the theoretical evaluation. Supported by the DFG.
