Abstract

The main goal of this paper is to investigate the electronic structure of valence band and core levels as well as surface topography of pristine tetraphenylporphyrin and Pt-based compounds Pt-TPP(p-COOH3)4, Pt-TPP(m-OCH3)4, PtCl2-TPP(m-OCH3)4 thin films. The electronic structure of various Pt-based metalloporphyrins which were investigated in dependence on their chemical structure and spectra were measured by high-resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) of valence band and Pt4f, Pt4d, C1s, O1s, N1s core levels. Results of atomic force microscopy (AFM) studies of topography and self-assembling processes in thin films of porphyrines are presented and discussed.
