The correlation between the crystal structure and valence band structure of a (GaIn)O solid solution system was investigated by using combinatorial synthesis. At a low Ga content of (GaIn)O with a single-phase cubic InO crystal structure, a surface electron accumulation layer (SEAL), which is an important electrical phenomenon in InO, was confirmed. When the Ga content increased to approximately = 0.4, mixed crystal structures of GaO and InO were produced. Above = 0.5, the dominant valence band structure was attributed to GaO, the SEAL disappeared, and the sheet resistance increased greatly by 5 orders of magnitude or more. The in-gap state and valence band structure of the (GaIn)O solid solution system were strongly affected by GaO; however, the valence band maximum position shifted to a higher binding energy.
通过组合合成研究了(GaIn)O 固溶体系的晶体结构和价带结构之间的相关性。在 Ga 含量较低的(GaIn)O 中,具有单相立方 InO 晶体结构,证实了表面电子积累层(SEAL),这是 InO 中的一个重要电现象。当 Ga 含量增加到约 = 0.4 时,会产生 GaO 和 InO 的混合晶体结构。高于 = 0.5 时,主导价带结构归因于 GaO,SEAL 消失,片电阻增加了 5 个数量级或更多。(GaIn)O 固溶体系的带隙态和价带结构受 GaO 强烈影响;然而,价带顶位置向更高的结合能移动。
