In this work, we extend our new approach [1] of controlling the geometric and electronic interface properties of surface alloys by adsorption of organic molecules. We investigated the PTCDA molecule adsorbed on surface alloys Sn1Ag2/Ag(111) and Sn1Au2/Au(111) by LEED, NIXSW and momentum photoemission microscopy to reveal changes in the lateral, vertical and electronic structure of the surface alloy caused by the adsorption of PTCDA. In both cases we find a clear vertical relaxation of the Sn atoms upon adsorption of PTCDA, similar to [1], but only in the case of PTCDA on Sn1Ag2/Ag(111) a charge transfer into the LUMO is observed. We thus conclude that the driving mechanism for lifting the Sn atoms is not charge transfer rather the formation of local bonds between the oxygen end groups of PTCDA and the Sn atoms.
