摘要: We have employed hard x-ray photoemission (HAXPES) to study a delta-doped SrTiO3 layer that consisted of 3-nm thickness La-doped with 6% La embedded in film. Results are compared thick, uniformily doped La:SrTiO3 layer. find no indication band offset for the layer, but evidence presence Ti3+ both thick sample and delta-layer, indications density states increase near Fermi energy These results further demonstrate HAXPES is powerful tool non-destructive investigation deeply buried layers.
