  We have prepared potassium intercalated 1,2;8,9-dibenzopentacene films under
vacuum conditions. The evolution of the electronic excitation spectra upon
potassium addition as measured using electron energy-loss spectroscopy clearly
indicate the formation of particular doped phases with compositions
K$_x$dibenzopentacene ($x$ = 1,2,3). Moreover, the stability of these phases as
a function of temperature has been explored. Finally, the electronic excitation
spectra also give insight into the electronic ground state of the potassium
doped 1,2;8,9-dibenzopentacene films.
