• comprehensive study we utilized differential reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), low-energy electron diffraction (LEED), low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (LT-STM), as well as photoelectron spectroscopy (PES). Our results reveal that DBP on h-BN/Ni(111) is well decoupled from the metal substrate Ni(111

• contribution we present an investigation of the energy level alignment at MnPc/C60 interfaces using photoelectron spectroscopy (PES). We show that this alignment depends on the preparation sequence and that the lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (LUMOs) of the two molecules lie energetically very close at

Interestingly, there is a single article about ZnPc molecules adsorbed on TiO2(110) surface reporting a tilted adsorption geometry in the first layer of molecules [51]. Yu et al. used the photoelectron spectroscopy

• (PES) and the near-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (NEXAFS) to investigate the ZnPc/TiO2 system. They conclude that molecules in the first layer bind with the molecular plane 30° from the surface and the tilt angle increases to 33° at higher coverage [51]. However, already the authors suggest
