Abstract

The structure of electronic states at the interfaces between perylene tetracarboxyldianhydride films and ZnO, Cu, GaAs, and InAs substrates is studied by the method of total current spectroscopy. It is found that the physicochemical properties of the substrate have a strong effect on the electronic state configuration in the substrate and film. On the basis of the experimental data, potential diagrams of the interfaces are constructed, which illustrate the formation of sharp and extended dipole layers, change in the charge state of surface levels, and modification of the electronic structure of the film.
