We report on the core levels, the valence band (VB) PES data, and the X-ray absorption (XAS) data which we use for the conduction band (CB) density of states. From these results we are able to derive the partial density of states (pDOS) of O2p and Zn4s4p states in the VB and CB, respectively as well as a band scheme. At the O1s resonance we observe a band of localized defect states which is located between the Fermi energy and the CBM. At the Zn2p edge the XAS data indicate that localized Zn4s4p states are involved in the DOS starting already at the Fermi energy.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{HaeberleGasparBarquinhaetal., author = {Haeberle, J{\"o}rg and Gaspar, Diana and Barquinha, Pedro and Machulik, Stephan and Janowitz, Christoph and Galazka, Zbigniew and Schmeißer, Dieter}, title = {A spectroscopic comparison of AOS thin films and TCO single crystals}, series = {Verhandlungen der Deutschen Physikalischen Gesellschaft}, booktitle = {Verhandlungen der Deutschen Physikalischen Gesellschaft}, publisher = {Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft}, address = {Bad Honnef}, abstract = {Amorphous oxide semiconductors (AOS) and transparent conductive oxides (TCO) are today one of most attractive fields of research in many industrial products, like e.g. high definition, low cost, transparent, and flexible displays. We got the unique possibility to measure a-GIZO and a-SnOx thin films and compare their electronic properties with those of In2O3, Ga2O3, ZnO, and SnO2 single crystals. We use resPES to study the electronic properties. We report on the core levels, the VB PES data, partial Integrated Yield (pIY) and the XAS absorption data. From these we are able to derive the elemental ratio, the pDOS as well as the band scheme. At the O1s resonance we observe multiple Auger processes from which we deduce that a band of localized defect states is located between the Fermi energy and the CBM. The resonant profiles taken at the corresponding metal edges indicate that metal states are involved in the DOS.}, language = {en} }
