X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy were used to measure electronic states as Si3N4 was deposited on clean GaN (0001) surfaces. The n-type (2 X 10(18)) and p-type (1 X 10(17)) GaN surfaces were atomically cleaned in NH3 at 860 degreesC, and the n-and p-type surfaces showed upward band bending of similar to0.2+/-0.1 eV and downward band bending of 1.1+/-0.1 eV, respectively, both with an electron affinity of 3.1+/-0.1 eV. Layers of Si (similar to0.2 nm) were deposited on the clean GaN and nitrided using an electron cyclotron resonance N-2 plasma at 300 degreesC and subsequently annealed at 650 degreesC for densification into a Si3N4 film. Surface analysis was performed after each step in the process, and yielded a valence band offset of 0.5+/-0.1 eV. Both interfaces exhibited type II band alignment where the valence band maximum of GaN lies below that of the Si3N4 valence band. The conduction band offset was deduced to be 2.4+/-0.1 eV, and a change of the interface dipole of 1.1+/-0.1 eV was observed for Si3N4/GaN interface formation. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics.
