摘要
The valence band offset (VBO) of InN/6H-SiC heterojunction has been directly measured by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The VBO is determined to be -0.10 +/- 0.23 eV and the conduction band offset is deduced to be -2.47 +/- 0.23 eV, indicating that the heterojunction has a type-II band alignment. The accurate determination of the valence and conduction band offsets is important for applications and analysis of InN/6H-SiC optoelectronic devices. (c) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.
