Weakly interacting systems such as organic molecules on monolayers of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) offer the possibility of integer charge transfer leading to the formation of organic ions. Such systems exhibit unique optical and electronic properties which differ from their neutral counterparts. In this study, we used a joint experimental and theoretical approach to investigate the charge transfer of perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA) molecules on h-BN/Ni(111) by using in-situ differential reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) and photoelectron orbital tomography (POT) measurements in combination with density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Our results show that the PTCDA monolayer consists of highly-ordered organic radical anions and neutral molecules. In addition, the occurrence of the integer charge transfer is discussed based on the energy-level alignment.
