Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of cobalt(II) 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-tert-butylphenyl)-porphyrin, a promising material for optical, photoelectrochemical, and chemical sensor applications, were prepared on Au(111) via axial ligation to 4-aminothiophenol, and studied by several surface science techniques. Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS) measurements showed the apparent topology of the Au(111) herringbone structure reconstruction, but with bias-dependent contrast images and asymmetric I/V characteristics. Photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed the presence of metalloporphyrins on the surface, whereas near-edge X-ray absorption (NEXAFS) measurements revealed that the porphyrin ring was tilted by about 70 degrees with respect to the surface plane. The above effects are ascribed to the presence of oriented molecular dipole layers between the metal and the organic material as confirmed by a comparison with first-principles density-functional theory calculations. The measured bias-dependent STM profiles have been reproduced by a simple monodimensional tunneling model.
