For highly efficient III-V-on-Si optoelectronic devices it is crucial to prepare defect-free heterointerfaces with defined electronic properties. Commonly a thin, pseudomorphic GaP epilayer is deposited on Si prior to further III-V buffer growth, due to its close lattice matching to Si. Here, the atomic and electronic structures of buried GaP/Si(001) heterointerfaces prepared by MOCVD were investigated by hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy combined with theoretical modelling. 4 - 50 nm thick GaP films with a different density of antiphase domain boundaries were grown on Si(001) H-terminated surfaces, as controlled by optical in situ spectroscopy. We found that the core-level positions and width change with GaP film thickness and Si substrate type. These observations were related to charge replacement and band bending effects at the interface. In consequence, an inter-diffused layer interface structure model based on the formation of Si-P bonds at the heterointerface and P-doping of the Si substrate is suggested.
