The Si 2p x ray photoelectron spectra of SiO{sub x} with a different composition of 0 {<=} x {<=} 2 have been studied experimentally and theoretically. The SiO{sub x} films were prepared by low-pressure chemical vapor deposition from SiH{sub 4} and N{sub 2}O source at 750 deg. C. Neither random bonding nor random mixture models can adequately describe the structure of these compounds. The interpretation of the experimental results is discussed according to a large scale potential fluctuation due to the spatial variation of chemical composition in SiO{sub x}.
