Notes:
Epitaxial growth of the strongly lattice mismatched (6.5%) layered chalcogenides InSe and GaSe on each other is obtained with the concept of van der Waals epitaxy as proven by low-energy electron diffraction and scanning tunnel microscope. InSe/GaSe/InSe and GaSe/InSe/GaSe quantum well structures were prepared by molecular beam epitaxy and their interface properties were characterized by soft x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Valence and conduction band offsets are determined to be 0.1 and 0.9 eV, respectively, and do not depend on deposition sequence (commutativity). As determined from the measured work functions the interface dipole is 0.05 eV; the band lineup between the two materials is correctly predicted by the Anderson model (electron affinity rule). © 1996 American Institute of Physics.
