By means of the LT-UHV-STM technique we investigated 2,7-dibenzyl 1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetracarboxylic diimide (BNTCDI), which consists of a naphthalene diimide (NDI) backbone and two benzyl groups. On a Pt(111)-surface it showed the formation of an effective transport path via hybrid BNTCDI/Pt d-states [1]. For a deeper understanding we investigated BNTCDI on an Au(111)-surface, where a weak physisorption is expected. As a result, we obtained one- and two-dimensional supramolecular structures. Orbital-resolved STM imaging allows us to identify intramolecular hydrogen bonds between the NDI-backbones as the driving force for the one-dimensional arrangements on step-edges. The two-dimensional structures on the terraces emerge as ordered and disordered molecular double layers. Locally resolved STS measurements reveal the characteristic electronic properties of BNTCDI and the influence on these by different substrate coupling strengths. In particular, we identify a LUMO-shift and an edge-state coupling as prominent adsorption driven influences. [1] DOI: 10.1021/acs.jpcc.7b09911
