Band discontinuities and band bending at the epitaxial SrTiO{sub 3}/GaAs(001) interface were investigated using x-ray and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy. Results showed that the epitaxial SrTiO{sub 3}/GaAs(001) formed a type-II heterojunction and valence band offsets being 0.6 eV and 2.5 eV, respectively, for both n- and p-GaAs(001) substrates. The photoemission results further revealed that Fermi level was unpinned at the epitaxial SrTiO{sub 3}/GaAs(001) interface.
