Abstract

Photoemission Yield Spectroscopy (PYS) associated with Auger Electron Spectroscopy (AES) and Low Energy Electron Diffraction (LEED) control have been used in the studies of the electronic properties of the surface space charge layer of the clean SnO2(110) surface with (1 × 1) atomic structure obtained by ion bombardment with subsequent annealing at 900 K. The work function φ and absolute band bending eVs were 4.20±0.03 and -1.64±0.13 eV, respectively. Moreover, two filled electronic state bands localized in the band gap below the Fermi level EF were observed. Their origin has also been briefly discussed.
