This paper presents the results of the investigation of the interface potential barrier and vacant electronic states in the energy range of 5 to 20 eV above the Fermi level (EF) in the deposition of perylene tetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA) films on the oxidized germanium surface ((GeO2)Ge). The concentration of oxide on the (GeO2)Ge surface was determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. In the experiments, we used the recording of the reflection of a test low-energy electron beam from the surface, implemented in the mode of total current spectroscopy. The theoretical analysis involves the calculation of the energy and spatial distribution of the orbitals of PTCDA molecules by the density functional theory (DFT) using B3LYP functional with the basis 6-31G(d), followed by the scaling of the calculated values of the orbital energy according to the procedure well-proven in the studies of small organic conjugated molecules. The pattern of changes in the fine structure of
