Journal ArticleDOI
The interface energetics of self-assembled monolayers on metals.
Georg Heimel,Georg Heimel,Lorenz Romaner,Lorenz Romaner,Egbert Zojer,Egbert Zojer,Jean-Luc Brédas +6 more
TL;DR: The establishment of a comprehensive atomistic picture regarding the impact of the individual components of a SAM on the interface energetics at metal/organic junctions paves the way for clear guidelines to design improved functional interfaces in organic and molecular electronics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toward Control of the Metal−Organic Interfacial Electronic Structure in Molecular Electronics: A First-Principles Study on Self-Assembled Monolayers of π-Conjugated Molecules on Noble Metals
TL;DR: The comprehensive picture established in this work provides valuable guidelines for controlling charge-carrier injection in organic electronics and current-voltage characteristics in single-molecule devices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interface energetics and level alignment at covalent metal-molecule junctions: pi-conjugated thiols on gold
TL;DR: The energetics at the interfaces between metal and monolayers of covalently bound organic molecules is studied theoretically and the highest occupied molecular levels are found to be pinned at a constant energy offset with respect to the metal Fermi level.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of bidirectional charge transfer and molecular distortions on the electronic structure of a metal-organic interface.
Lorenz Romaner,Georg Heimel,Jean-Luc Brédas,Alexander Gerlach,Frank Schreiber,Robert L. Johnson,Jörg Zegenhagen,Steffen Duhm,Norbert Koch,Egbert Zojer +9 more
TL;DR: The complex interplay among several interfacial phenomena that collectively determine the electronic structure of the strong electron acceptor tetrafluoro-tetracyanoquinodimethane chemisorbed on copper are resolved by combining complementary experimental techniques and first-principles calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tuning the Ionization Energy of Organic Semiconductor Films: The Role of Intramolecular Polar Bonds
Ingo Salzmann,Steffen Duhm,Georg Heimel,Martin Oehzelt,Rolf Kniprath,Robert L. Johnson,Jürgen P. Rabe,Norbert Koch +7 more
TL;DR: The study shows that surface engineering of organic semiconductors via adjusting the polarity of intramolecular bonds represents a generally viable alternative to the surface modification of substrates to control the energetics at organic/(in)organic interfaces.
