摘要
The valence band offset (VBO) of an Al0.17Ga0.83N/GaN heterojunction is determined to be 0.13 +/- 0.07 eV by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. From the obtained VBO value, the conduction band offset (CBO) of similar to 0.22 eV is obtained. The results indicate that the Al0.17Ga0.83N/GaN heterojunction exhibits a type-I band alignment.
