abstract = {In this work we present a systematic study of the structure
formation in hetero-organic systems consisting of the
prototype molecules
3,4,9,10-perylene-tetra-carboxylic-dianhydride (PTCDA) and
copper-II-phthalocyanine (CuPc) adsorbed on the Ag(111)
surface. The geometric structure of these systems is
investigated with established surface science techniques
like low energy electron diffraction, scanning tunneling
microscopy or the X-ray standing wave technique. The
electronic structure of the individual molecules in the
mixed films is revealed by angle resolved photoemission
spectroscopy data which are analyzed in the orbital
tomography approach introduced recently [PBF$^{+}$09,
PRU$^{+}$11]. Laterally mixed films of CuPc and PTCDA were
studied in order to reveal the influence of the substrate
mediated intermolecular interaction on the geometric and
electronic properties of the mixed film. The lateral order,
i.e., the size and shape of the unit cell, can be tuned by
changing the relative coverage of the molecules on the
surface. A highly surprising finding is that the charge
transfer between the individual molecules in the mixed film
and the substrate is no longer reflected by their adsorption
height on the surface. We explain this finding by a coupling
of the electronic levels of the molecules via a hybrid
state, which results in an additional population of the
PTCDA LUMO and a complete depopulation of the CuPc LUMO
level. Vertically stacked bilayer films allow to study both
the intermolecular interaction strength along the vertical
stacking direction and the influence of the second organic
layer on the properties of the metal organic interface. For
the adsorption of CuPc on a closed PTCDA layer on Ag(111), a
smooth organic-organic interface was formed. CuPc adsorbs in
the second layer on PTCDA and does not destroy the lateral
order of the PTCDA layer. The vertical distance between the
organic layers indicates a mainly electrostatic and van der
Waals interaction across the hetero-organic interface.
However, the chemical bonding between PTCDA and the silver
surface is changed upon the adsorption of CuPc. This is
reflected in an enhanced charge transfer into the PTCDA LUMO
level coinciding with an altered vertical adsorption height
of PTCDA which depends on the CuPc coverage. These findings
can be explained by an additional screening effect, induced
by the adsorption of CuPc.},
