摘要

We present measurements of the Zr and Si core level photoelectron binding energies relative to the Fermi level and the vacuum level under a ZrO_2 growth series on Si(100). It is shown that the Zr core level binding energy is most properly referenced to the local vacuum level already from the monolayer regime. This confirms the insulating properties of ZrO_2. The Si core levels are referenced to the Fermi level and undergo shifts consistent with the disappearance of the mid-band-gap states originating from the (2 X 1) reconstruction on the clean Si(100) surface. The use of O 1s x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) to determine the location of the conduction band edge of ZrO_2 is discussed with the aid of ab initio calculations. It is demonstrated that the conduction band edge is located at the XAS peak position and that the position relative to the valence band can be determined by aligning the O 1s XAS spectrum to the O 1s photoelectron spectrum. The study thus establishes that photoelectron spectroscopy in conjunction with x-ray absorption spectroscopy forms a most powerful tool for studies of the band alignment at metal oxide-silicon interfaces.
