Popis: The band bending changes due to deposition of Sb on cleaved GaAs(110) surfaces are studied by UV photoemission spectroscopy (UPS). The band bending vs coverage curves are evaluated from measurements of the work function change Δ and a determination of the surface dipole contribution within Δ. For both n - and p -type material depletion layers are formed with saturation band bendings of 650 meV and −500 meV, respectively. These values are essentially reached for Sb coverages around 0.1 monolayer. The results fit well to predictions of the defect model for the explanation of Schottky-barriers on III–V compound semiconductor surfaces.
