Abstract
Here we present a helium atom diffraction study of pentacene films on Au(111) surface prepared by supersonic molecular beam deposition. Though investigated parameter space was limited no significant difference between the films prepared by different deposition energies was observed. Completion of monolayer coverage was confirmed by simultaneous helium scattering and quartz crystal resonance frequency shift measurements during pentacene film growth on the gold electrode of a quartz resonator. Monolayer films were found to adopt a (6×3) unit cell which was also observed for pentacene monolayers on Ag(111). However no ordered multilayer film structure could be observed which is in contrast with the previous Ag(111) studies.
