摘要：
固体表面上的有机薄膜和二维（2D）分子组装体在分子电子学、光电子学、催化和传感领域具有应用潜力。这些应用依赖于有机/无机杂化界面的本征电子性质。在此，我们研究了由平坦、非共价键合的9,10-二氰基蒽（DCA）分子组成的原子级薄自组装分子薄膜与Ag(111)表面之间界面处二维电子态的能量色散。利用傅里叶变换扫描隧道谱（FT-STS），我们确定波矢位于第一布里渊区（BZ）约80%面积内且靠近Gamma点的二维电子波函数呈自由电子状，表明二维分子薄膜与金属表面之间存在弱电子相互作用。通过对自由电子能量色散进行微扰二阶修正，我们进一步确定了自组装分子薄膜对界面电子产生的散射势振幅的上界，约为1.5 eV。我们的方法可用于定量表征杂化二维界面和异质结构中的电子相互作用。
英文摘要：
Thin organic films and two-dimensional (2D) molecular assemblies on solid surfaces yield the potential for applications in molecular electronics, optoelectronics, catalysis, and sensing. These applications rely on the intrinsic electronic properties of the hybrid organic/inorganic interface. Here, we investigate the energy dispersion of 2D electronic states at the interface between an atomically thin self-assembled molecular film, comprised of flat, noncovalently bonded 9,10-dicyanoanthracene (DCA) molecules, and a Ag(111) surface. Using Fourier-transformed scanning tunnelling spectroscopy (FT-STS), we determined that the 2D electronic wave functions with wavevectors within ~80% of the first Brillouin zone (BZ) area close to the Gamma-point are free-electron-like, suggesting a weak electronic interaction between the 2D molecular film and the metal surface. Via a perturbative second-order correction to the free electron energy dispersion, we further established an upper bound for the amplitude of the scattering potential resulting from the self-assembled molecular film that the interface electrons are subject to, on the order of 1.5 eV. Our approach allows for quantifying electronic interactions at hybrid 2D interfaces and heterostructures.
