Abstract

The conduction- and valence-band discontinuities for the (110) GaAs-Ge heterojunction have been measured as ΔE c = 0.50 eV and ΔE v = 0.25 eV by the angle-resolved ultraviolet photoemission (ARUPS) technique. These values are in good agreement with the theoretical predictions of Pickett et al.
