Abstract

The electronic structure of PC61BM film on clean Ag(100) and Ag(111) surfaces has been measured with photoemission spectroscopy. The interfaces are chemisorption. It is necessary to combine the two sub-interfaces model and the integer charge transfer model for thoroughly understanding the interfacial electronic structure. The electron injection barrier can then be determined without inverse photoemission measurements, and the PC61BM/Ag(111) system is found to be ohmic contact for electron transport. The analysis method should be applicable to many other organic/metal interfaces.
