Abstract

Preparation and characterization either by optical absorption, photoluminescence and micro-Raman spectroscopy of individual components as well as bilayers consisting of organic dye semiconductor Zinc Phthalocyanine (ZnPc) and fullerene, C60, thin films are reported. The layers and structures were deposited in vacuum and some fullerene films were also prepared by casting the C60 solution in benzene. The optical absorption and photoluminescence dependencies on film thickness in bilayers C60/ZnPc were observed and may be discussed in a context of interface induced simmetry reduction of C60 molecules.
