Abstract We have determined the complex dielectric tensor of single crystalline 3,4,9,10-perylene tetracarboxylic dianhydride (-PTCDA) as a function of energy in the range between 1.4 and 5.0 eV. The results obtained reflect the monoclinic symmetry of the crystal: The principal axes of the real and the imaginary part of the tensor in general do not coincide and show chromatic dispersion. Monoclinic behavior allows rotation of the components · and · in the plane perpendicular to the unique symmetry axis . The experimental results indicate that the energies of the optical transitions observed in the weak · component coincide with energies in which a resonance effect due to coupling with the stronger · component occurs. These resonances appear at energies close to electronic excitations such as the optical gap, the transport gap and the highest occupied molecular orbital–lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO–LUMO) peak-to-peak gap and their assignments are discussed based on theoretical calculations.
