Spatially Resolved Investigation of the Bandgap Variation across a β-(AlxGa1–x)2O3/β-Ga2O3 Interface by STEM–VEELS Spatially Resolved Investigation of the Bandgap Variation across a β-(AlxGa1–x)2O3/β-Ga2O3 Interface by STEM–VEELS AITranslate
Abstract AITranslate
Alloying β-(AlxGa1–x)2O3 on a β-Ga2O3 substrate results in a heterojunction with a tunable bandgap, but is often plagued by defects in the interface region. In this work, using valence electron energy loss spectroscopy combined with density functional theory calculations, we identify a high concentration of cation interstitials at a β-(Al0.2Ga0.8)2O3/β-Ga2O3 interface and measure the optical absorption edge. We find a dip in the band edge of 0.1 eV depth and a width of around 15 nm on the β-Ga2O3 side of the interface with signs of noticeable electron probe delocalization broadening and discuss defect states versus excitons as its possible origins.
