Abstract

We report the energy band offsets at a GaiOjCGdjO^J-GaAs interface. The valence-band offset (AEy) is ~ 2.6 eV, measured by soft x-ray photoemission spectroscopy. Analysis of the current-voltage characteristics of a Pt-GajOjfGdiO-GaAs MOS (metal-oxide-semiconductor) structure, which are dominated by Fowler-Nordheim tunneling, reveals a conduction-band offset (AEc) ~ 1.4 eV at the Ga2O3(Gd2O3)-GaAs interface and an electron effective mass (m) - 0.29 me of the Ga2O3(Gd2Oj) film.
