摘要:
Roles of an ultrathin Si insertion layer in AlAs/Si/GaAs system are studied by usinginsitux‐ray photoemission spectroscopy. It is found that a main role of the Si layer is not a control of a valence band offset as was proposed by Sorbaetal., but an introduction of band bending in an overgrown layer. The proposed band‐bending model explains all the experimental observations in the x‐ray photoemission spectra; an Al 2pline broadening and the dependence of a peak energy shift on the crystallographic orientation and an overgrown‐layer thickness.
