The interaction of evaporated copper overlayers, from 0.03 to 0.4 nm thick, with specific terminal functional groups of an organized molecular assembly (OMA) of HS(CH[sub 2])[sub 11]CN formed on gold has been studied by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. For average copper coverages above 0.1 nm, the peak intensities show fair agreement with a model that assumes an increasing fraction of each increment of the deposited copper penetrates the OMA and resides at the OMA/Au interface. For lower coverages, a weak Cu(CN) interaction is indicated by shifts of the N 1[ital s] level and the C 1[ital s] high binding energy (HBE) shoulder to lower binding of as well as by the presence of a Cu 2[ital p] HBE shoulder.
