Abstract

Valence-band offsets for Nb-doped (100) rutile (R-TiO2) epilayer on (0001) GaN and (001) anatase (A-TiO2) epilayer mixed with R-TiO2 on (0001) GaN were determined using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy to be +0.2 eV and +0.6 eV, respectively. Accordingly, they form type-I and type-II heterojunctions, respectively. The electron mobility as high as 260 cm2 V−1 s−1 was measured for the A(+R)-TiO2:Nb epilayer on undoped GaN, which is quantitatively explained in terms of electron accumulation at the interfacial region of GaN. The intrinsic mobility of approximately 30 cm2 V−1 s−1 at 300 K was obtained for the A(+R)-TiO2:Nb epilayer grown on a p-type GaN.
