    Notes: We determined the orbital lineup of the tris (8-hydroxyquinolinato) gallium (Gaq3)/Mg interface using combined x-ray and ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (XPS and UPS) measurements. The Gaq3/Mg system is a prototypical model structure for organic electron/low work function electrode transporting materials interfaces found in organic light emitting diodes (OLED). A Gaq3 thin film was grown in 15 steps on a previously sputter-cleaned Mg substrate starting at a 1 Å nominal thickness up to a final thickness of 512 Å. Before, and in between the growth steps, the sample surface was characterized by XPS and UPS. The results indicate the formation of a reaction layer of about 12 Å thickness at the Mg interface, which resulted in a 0.96 V interface dipole potential. At Gaq3 coverages higher than 256 Å, a strong charging shift occurred in the overlayer related UPS-emission lines, which was identified by measuring the high binding energy cutoff (secondary edge) of both the XP and UP spectra. The several magnitudes different x-ray and ultraviolet source photon intensities allow pinpointing charging shifts with high sensitivity. Due to the low work function of the reacted interface layer, the Gaq3 electronic states are aligned at a binding energy below the substrate Fermi edge that exceeds the magnitude of the optical gap between the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (HOMO and LUMO). This allowed the conclusion that the ground state exciton binding energy of Gaq3 needs to be larger than 0.43 eV. Based on these considerations, the lowest possible electron injection barrier matching the experimental data was estimated to be 0.15 eV. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Epitaxial GaSe films have been prepared on WSe2 (0001) substrates with 14% lattice mismatch and characterized by photoelectron spectroscopy, electron diffraction, and ex situ by tunneling microscopy. The films grow in the Frank–van der Merve growth mode. The best films with perfect azimuthal orientation are formed after an annealing step at 720 K. The basic mechanisms of this van der Waals epitaxy are qualitatively discussed in terms of thermodynamic and kinetic parameters.

    Notes: Thin lithium fluoride (LiF) interlayers between the low work function electrode and the electron transport layer in organic light emitting diodes (OLED) result in improved device performance. We investigated the electronic structure of LiF coated Al and Pt electrodes by x-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) and ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (UPS). Thin LiF films were grown in several steps onto Ar+ sputtered Al and Pt foils. After each growth step the surfaces were characterized in situ by XPS and UPS measurements. After evaluating band bending, work function and valence band offset for both samples, their band lineups were determined. Our measurements indicate that despite the insulating character of LiF in both samples, band bending is present in the LiF layer. The difference in band bending between the samples allows the conclusion that the driving force for the development of the band bending results from the contact potential between the metal and the LiF overlayer. The band bending is most likely caused by a redistribution of charged Frenkel or Schottky type defects within the LiF layer. The work function of both samples after LiF deposition was dramatically lowered compared to the values obtained on the clean sputtered metal surfaces. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The junction properties of GaSe/WSe2 heterointerfaces grown by van der Waals epitaxy have been characterized by photoelectron spectroscopy and surface photovoltage measurements (SPV). The surfaces of p-WSe2 substrates doped with Se excess convert to n doping during annealing at T≥720 K, leading to a SPV of 330 mV. Deposited p GaSe forms an n-p heterodiode opposing the p-n homodiode within the substrate. Promising results are obtained for n-WSe2/p-GaSe heterointerfaces with SPV of at least 0.3 eV. The valence band and conduction band offsets are 0.6 and 0.2±0.1 eV, respectively, in accordance with the Anderson model of heterojunction formation.

    Notes: Perylene tetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA) thin films were grown in several steps on tin disulfide (SnS2) single crystals and characterized by combined x-ray and ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (XPS), (UPS) in order to characterize the frontier orbital line-up and the interface dipole at their interface. Due to the large difference between the work functions of PTCDA (4.26 eV) and SnS2 (5.09 eV) this experiment represents a model system for the investigation of band bending related phenomena in organic semiconductor heterojunctions. Our results show that the equilibration between the Fermi levels of both materials in contact is achieved almost solely by band bending (bulk charge redistribution) in the PTCDA layer. No significant interface dipole was detected which means that the PTCDA molecular orbitals and the SnS2 bands align at the vacuum level corresponding to the electron affinity rule. Our experiments clearly demonstrate the importance of an additional XPS measurement which (in most cases) allow the measurement of band bending with much higher accuracy than could be achieved in experiments carried out by UPS alone. These experiments also show that, due to the different depth sensitivity of high binding energy cutoff (secondary edge) and XPS core levels (or UPS valence bands), it is very important to grow relatively thick overlayers in order to measure orbital alignment and interface dipole correctly. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Gaq3 is a promising luminescent organic semiconductor for applications in organic light emitting diodes. The frontier orbital alignment at the tris (8-hydroxyquinolinato) gallium (Gaq3)/Pt organic Schottky contact was determined by combined x-ray and ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (XPS, UPS) measurements. A Gaq3 thin film was deposited in several steps on a previously Ar+ sputtered pure Pt foil. After each growth step, the sample was characterized by XPS and UPS. The combination of XPS and UPS measurements allows the precise evaluation of the interface dipole independent from the simultaneously occurring band bending at the interface and charging artifacts. The measurements show that the Pt/Gaq3 interface has a strong dipole of 0.71 eV indicating the transfer of negative charge from Gaq3 to Pt. Due to the large work function difference between Pt and Gaq3, strong band bending occurred. At Gaq3 coverages higher than 128 Å strong charging shifts occurred in the overlayer related emission lines which were identified by measuring the high binding energy cutoff (secondary edge) of both the XP and UP spectra. Due to the several magnitudes difference between the x-ray and ultraviolet source photon intensities, differences between the high binding energy cutoff positions of both measurements allow to pinpoint charging shifts with high sensitivity. In order to investigate the possible influence of radiation damage to the Gaq3 film, a single growth step control film of Gaq3 of the same thickness as in the multi-step orbital line-up procedure was deposited. The comparison of XPS peak intensities and positions suggest that no significant chemical alteration occurred during the photoemission spectroscopy measurements of the multi-step deposition experiment. However, the doping level of the layer may have changed due to the radiation exposure during the measurements. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A quantum well composed of layered semiconductors and SnSe2 (Eg=1.03 eV) and SnS2 (Eg=2.18 eV) was grown in several steps by van der Waals epitaxy. After each growth step the electronic structure was characterized by ultraviolet and x-ray photoemission spectroscopy. From these measurements, bandbending and the valence-band offset were determined on both sides of the quantum well. The results show that both wells are of the same magnitude, hence indicating commutativity of the band offset. Small interface dipoles (0.11–0.19 eV) were detected at the interfaces, which could be identified as quantum dipoles. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The occurrence of quantum dipoles at layered materials semiconductor heterointerfaces was investigated by photoemission spectroscopy (PES). Due to the unique properties of layered compounds the prepared interfaces are essentially free of the structural problems known from the usually investigated heterosystems composed of III–V, IV or II–VI materials allowing the detailed investigation of electronic phenomena at the interfaces. We investigated heterostructures composed of epitaxial layers of SnS2 and SnSe2 on different single crystalline layered chalcogenide substrates (WSe2, MoS2, MoTe2, and GaSe). The epilayers were grown by van der Waals epitaxy (vdWe) on the (0001) plane of the substrate crystals. For every system the valence band offset was determined by careful evaluation of the PES data as a function of the film thickness. Using published values for the band gaps and the experimentally determined work functions and surface potentials the band lineup for each system was determined. The band offsets of all systems were found to differ from the prediction of the electron affinity rule (EAR) by a small systematic deviation which was related to the occurrence of localized quantum dipoles at the interface. This deviation can be expressed as a linear charge transfer correction term added to the original EAR. This corrected EAR is still a linear rule allowing the assignment of "characteristic energies" to each material for the calculation of the band offset. We could demonstrate that the error margin of the corrected EAR lies well within the experimental error of PES experiments, thus proving the general applicability of linear laws for the determination of the band offset in absence of structural dipoles. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The alignment of the highest occupied molecular orbitals (HOMO) at the tris (8-hydroxy quinoline) aluminum (Alq3)/N,N′-di-(3-methylphenyl)-N,N′diphenyl-4,4′-diaminobiphenyl (TPD) heterojunction, used in organic light-emitting diodes (OLED), was determined by growing a TPD layer in several steps on a thick Alq3 substrate layer. After each growth step the sample was characterized in situ by x-ray and ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy. The offset of the HOMO maxima at the interface was determined to be −0.13 eV from Alq3 to TPD. By including the known HOMO–lowest occupied molecular orbital (LUMO) gaps for both molecules into the evaluation, the offset of the LUMO minima was determined to be −0.33 eV from Alq3 to TPD. These values are consistent with previous assumptions that this interface represents a higher barrier for electron injection from Alq3 to TPD than for hole injection from TPD to Alq3. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.
