Indium oxide (In2O3), a transparent semiconduting oxide, is known to exhibit tunable electron transport characteristics, from semi-insulating to highly n-doped characteristics [1]. One important property of In2O3 is the existence of a surface electron accumulation layer which allows generation of ohmic contacts for devices, but hinders production of rectifying contacts. Recently it has been shown that sputtering from metal targets in a reactive oxygen atmosphere allows formation of Schottky contacts [2]. We have studied metallic Pt contacts deposited by different thin film methods as well as the influence of an In2O3 surface pretreatment by oxygen plasma in order to determine the relevant changes that influence the electron transport characteristics of the Pt/In2O3 interface and to identify the origin of Schottky barrier formation. For this purpose, photoelectron spectroscopy was applied to characterize the chemical composition of the semiconductor surface and the metal contacts as well as to determine the electronic barriers at the heterointerface.
