The electronic structures of Alq₃/Si(111) and Alq₃/LiBr/Si(111) interfaces are presented in this report. The studies were carried out in situ in ultrahigh vacuum by ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy. Alq₃ and LiBr layers were vapour deposited onto a single crystal of n-type Si(111). The energy level diagrams were prepared for the structures. The formation of the LiBr interfacial layer results in a decrease of the energy barrier at the interface.
We report the results of our studies of ruthenium layer structures adsorbed on GaN(0001). Ruthenium was evaporated at room temperature under ultrahigh vacuum conditions onto n-type GaN substrates epitaxially grown on sapphire. While X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed the presence of Ru bonds in the deposited adlayers, the ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy show a peak at the Fermi level as well as lines originating from ruthenium. The height of the Schottky barrier was calculated based on the data measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy and amounts to 1.5 eV.
