We investigate Pr2O3 as one representative of this group on Silicon and Silicon-Aluminium oxynitride substrates. In earlier work we observed the positive influence of this AlOxNy intermediate layer on the electrical properties of the Pr2O3 layer. Now we present in-situ EELS, XPS and UPS measurements of gradually grown thin Pr2O3 on AlOxNy. From these measurements we determine the band structure and find a very fast change of the band gap for the first few Ångström, coupled with n-type behaviour for the Pr2O3 film. These results are compared with RIXS measurements of a 5 nm Pr2O3 on a 1 nm thick AlOxNy layer.

We use ELS with a monochromatized (50 meV - 150 meV) electron gun and primary energies between 20 eV and 30 eV. Starting with the native SiO2/Si(001) layers we find that loss function of the substrate dominates for using primary energies beyond 50 eV. In contrast at energies below 50 eV the loss intensity can be used to derived the band gap with an accuracy of ±200 meV. We compare thin (<3 nm) films of HfOx, Pr2O3,Al2O3 and Si-Oxynitrides and discuss the band gap values as well as the scattered intensity observed within the gap.
