The adsorption of pentacene on Cu(221), Cu(511) and Cu(911) is investigated using density functional theory (DFT) with the self-consistent inclusion of van der Waals (vdW) interactions. Cu(211) is a vicinal of Cu(111) while Cu(511) and…
The properties of Shockley-type interface states between $\pi$-conjugated organic molecular layers and metal surfaces are investigated by time-resolved two-photon photoemission experiments and density functional theory. For perylene- and…

Molecular adsorption at organic/metal interfaces depends on a range of mechanisms: covalent bonds, charge transfer, Pauli repulsion and van der Waals (vdW) interactions shape the potential energy surface (PES), making it key to…

First-principles simulations of electronic properties of hybrid inorganic/organic interfaces are challenging, as common density-functional theory (DFT) approximations target specific material classes like bulk semiconductors or gas-phase…

Electron transfer (ET) in molecular donor-acceptor dye systems is crucial for charge transport in organic semiconductors. Classically, ET rates should decrease with increasing donor-acceptor distance while the microscopic mechanism is more…
