Measurement of w-InN/h-BN Heterojunction Band Offsets by X-Ray Photoemission Spectroscopy

<p>Abstract</p> <p>X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy has been used to measure the valence band offset (VBO) of the w-InN/h-BN heterojunction. We find that it is a type-II heterojunction with the VBO being &#8722;0.30 &#177; 0.09 eV and the corresponding conduction band offse...

description <p>Abstract</p> <p>X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy has been used to measure the valence band offset (VBO) of the w-InN/h-BN heterojunction. We find that it is a type-II heterojunction with the VBO being &#8722;0.30 &#177; 0.09 eV and the corresponding conduction band offset (CBO) being 4.99 &#177; 0.09 eV. The accurate determination of VBO and CBO is important for designing the w-InN/h-BN-based electronic devices.</p>
