摘要：

Due to the difficulty of p-type doping in beta-Ga2O3, NiO/beta-Ga2O3 heterojunction becomes a promising candidate for fabricating bipolar devices. In this work, we performed a comparative study on the band alignment and electrical properties of the NiO/beta-Ga2O3 heterojunctions with different beta-Ga2O3 orientations. NiO thin films were sputtered on three beta-Ga2O3 substrates with (-20 1), (001) and (010) orientations and were subsequently fabricated into NiO/beta-Ga2O3 heterojunction diodes. A type-II band alignment between the NiO and beta-Ga2O3 was identified by the transmittance spectra and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements. The valence band offsets (VBOs) of the NiO/beta-Ga2O3 heterojunctions on (-20 1), (001) and (010) substrates were deter-mined to be (2.12 +/- 0.06) eV, (2.44 +/- 0.07) eV and (2.66 +/- 0.07) eV, respectively, and their corresponding conduction band offsets (CBOs) were (1.22 +/- 0.06) eV, (1.49 +/- 0.07) eV and (1.86 +/- 0.07) eV. In addition, the fabricated heterojunction diodes showed good rectification properties with different turn-on voltages, which was in good agreement with the XPS results. The revealed influence of substrate orientations on the properties in NiO/beta-Ga2O3 heterojunctions were of great importance for the design and optimization of beta-Ga2O3-based het-erojunction devices.
