Abstract

Core-level photoelectron spectroscopy with the combination of synchrotron radiation (SR) and a laser was used for exploring the surface-photovoltage (SPV) effect and its temporal profiles in a GaAs–GaAsP superlattice (SL). It was observed that the SPV value in the SL is suppressed as compared with a bulk GaAs. However, no significant difference was found in the temporal profile between the bulk and the SL. It is suggested that the suppression of the SPV in the SL is dominantly due to the small value of band bending under thermal equilibrium.
