Au contacts on melt-grown-In2O3 (111) single crystals were studied using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to monitor the band bending by core level and valence band spectra, with correction for the photovoltage effect. The measurement was performed through stepwise Au evaporation onto the (111) surface of In2O3 at room temperature (RT) as well as low temperature (LT). A small Schottky barrier on RT-samples and a larger one on LT-samples were observed. The comparison of the experimental barrier height with the predicted one from the Schottky-Mott rule shows a discrepancy. It implies that the complexity of the atomic structure of the present metal-semiconductor interface is beyond the applicability of the Schottky-Mott rule. The results indicate that an explicit reference to the surface electron accumulation layer is not necessary when discussing the Schottky character of the Au/In2O3 contact. In addition, the results reveal the epitaxial growth of Au on In2O3 and also the chemical reaction and formation of an Au-In alloy at RT.
