Abstract

Two-photon photoemission has been used to study the electronic structure of the valence and conduction bands at SiC(0001) surfaces. The various surface reconstructions show distinctly different spectra and work functions. The ionization energy is found independent of polytype and surface reconstruction to be 6.9+/-0.2 eV. For the (root3xroot3)R30degrees surface the occupied and unoccupied Mott-Hubbard bands are found with a splitting U=2.4+/-0.1 eV. A long-lived exciton between the Mott-Hubbard bands is identified with a binding energy of similar to0.7 eV.
