Abstract
The electronic structure of solids is directly connected with most of their physical and chemical properties; organic solids are also under the same circumstances. In the case of organic molecular solids, their electronic structure is basically derived from those of their component molecules. It is therefore important to consider the molecular electronic relaxation in solids for the study of, in particular, electronic properties of organic solids [1–7]. On the other hand, ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS) which is a useful experimental method to detect the valence electronic structure mainly can often provide us with ultraviolet photoelectron (UP) spectra of an organic material both in the gaseous state and in the solid state. This enables us to compare closely these spectra which will lead us to elucidation of the molecular electronic relaxation.
