Determination of InN-GaN heterostructure band offsets from internal photoemission measurements
arXiv:0706.0583
Abstract
Band discontinuities at the InN-GaN heterointerface are experimentally determined from internal photoemission spectroscopy measurements on n+ InN on GaN epilayers. The photocurrent shows two threshold energies, one at 1.624 eV and the other at 2.527 eV. From these we obtain the valence band offset 0.85 eV and the conduction band offset 1.82 eV.
