Abstract
Heterostructures formed by epitaxial Ge grown in situ on Si(100) substrates were characterized by photoelectric yield spectroscopy, UPS and XPS. It is shown that both substrate and overlayer valence-band tops can be identified in the photoelectric-yield spectrum, thus allowing a direct and precise determination of the band lineup. We find a valence band discontinuity of 0.36 ± 0.02 eV for heterojunctions whose overlayers were grown according to the Stranski-Krastanov mechanism. A considerably larger offset is obtained from the analysis of the XPS data.
