We investigate the atomic structure and electronic properties of monolayers of copper phthalocyanines (CuPc) deposited on epitaxial graphene substrate. We focus in particular on hexadecafluorophthalocyanine (F(16)CuPc), using both theoretical and experimental (scanning tunneling microscopy - STM) studies. For the individual

Organic/organic single-crystal coaxial p-n heterojunction nanowire arrays consisting of p-type copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) and n-type 5,10,15,20-tetra(4-pyridyl)-porphyrin (H(2)TPyP) are fabricated through a one-step physical vapor transport (PVT) process. Each single junction wire revealed high photodependent rectifying and sensitive photoresponsive characteristics in
