Semiconductor nanowire (NW) heterostructures are promising building blocks for future electronic devices. In particular, GaAs/InAs radial NWs heterostructures are candidates for nano-electronics, where a lower band gap semiconductor, e.g. InAs, is grown on a semiconductor with a higher band gap, e.g. GaAs, providing band bending at the interface. For effective band confinement it is necessary to control the radial thickness, and the local defect structure at the hetero-interface and its relation to the electronic properties. Here we report on X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy of GaAs/InAs core/shell NWs grown by molecular beam epitaxy. After cleaning under atomic hydrogen the As-oxides on top of the NWs were considerably reduced while the Ga- and In-oxides were slightly reduced. The binding energy of the As 3d core levels was shifted about 1 eV towards lower energies. These results show that the As component of the native oxide turns the NWs surface strongly n-type. Our findings show that the shelling of GaAs NWs with InAs may leads to band bending of 0.2 to 0.3 eV at hetero-interface.
