Determination of the band offset for the heterostructure ZnO/Cu2O and ZnS/Cu2O via X-Ray Photoelectron Spektroscopy (XPS) — •Benedikt Kramm, Andreas Laufer, Achim Kronenberger, Swen Graubner, Daniel Reppin, Alba Seibert, Philipp Schurig, Angelika Polity, and Bruno K.

ZnO and Cu2O are direct band-gap semiconductors. Both are promising materials for electronic devices like diodes, transistors or solar cells. Important is, that ZnO and Cu2O contain only non toxic und sustainable elements. Due to a band-gap energy of 2.1 eV for Cu2O a high absorption in the visible light spectrum could be obtained which is suitable for solar cells. We produced a heterojunction of intrinsic p-type Cu2O and hydrogen doped n-type ZnO or ZnS on sapphire using sputter deposition. Investigating the energy band structure of the thin film heterojunction ZnO/Cu2O via XPS yield to be a type II alignment with a valence-band offset between 2.4 − 2.7 eV. Furthermore the band offset between ZnS and Cu2O, using ZnS as a buffer-layer for the heterostructure ZnO/ZnS/Cu2O, was explored. For the band offset structure of the whole system the band offset values for ZnS/ZnO, determined by Persson [1], have been used.
