Penning ionization electron spectroscopy (PIES) was used to investigate the effects of crystallographic inperfection of the substrate surface on organic ultrathin-film growth. For titanyl phthalocyanine (OTiPc) evaporated on graphite, it was found that the molecular orientation and aggregation in the film depend significantly on the type of graphite substrate. On a highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG), OTiPc film prepared by 1-monolayer-equivalence (MLE) deposition consists of islands of double layers, while on Grafoil, the molecules do not aggregate as on the HOPG, and form a monolayer. This large difference originated from the surface topography of the two graphite substrates.
