Abstract
X-ray photoemission spectroscopy has been used to measure the valence band offset DELTAE(v) for the AlP/GaP (001) heterojunction interface. The heterojunction samples were prepared by molecular-beam epitaxy. A value of DELTAE(v)=0.43 eV is obtained (staggered band alignment, with AlP valence band below that of GaP).
