Work function and band bending on clean cleaved zinc oxide surfaces

Absolute values for the work function of the clean cleaved polar and prism faces are given. For freshly cleaved and also for cleaved and annealed oxygen faces band bending and electron affinity are determined. A stable depletion layer is found independent of the annealing temperature, proving the ex...

Summary:Absolute values for the work function of the clean cleaved polar and prism faces are given. For freshly cleaved and also for cleaved and annealed oxygen faces band bending and electron affinity are determined. A stable depletion layer is found independent of the annealing temperature, proving the existence of surface states with acceptor character on the clean oxygen face.
