The electronic structure of ultrathin films of manganese phthalocyanine (MnPc) on polycrystalline and single crystalline Au has been investigated using photoexcited spectroscopies in the lab and at synchrotron sources. Coverage-dependent photoemission and Auger spectra showed clear evidence for electronic interactions of Mn to Au at the immediate interface. Polarization-dependent N K-edge X-ray absorption spectra (XAS) supported the lying down orientation of MnPc molecular films on Au(100). The different peak features and shapes of these spectra in MnPc compared to other metal Pcs provided clear hints for hybridization with the Mn d-states of the molecule, and significant modifications of the monolayer spectra with respect to the film data indicated the involvement of these nitrogen-related states in electronic interactions at the interface. Changes of the Mn L-edge XAS spectral shape as well as the total intensity going from monolayer to multilayer coverage were detected, again indicating the local interaction of Mn d-states with substrate metal states. Resonant photoemission spectroscopy was utilized to identify valence band features with Mn character.
