Ballisticelectron emission spectroscopy (BEES) was used to determine the electron barrier height at the interface of Au and an oxidizedGaAs film. Two thresholds were observed in the spectra. In a two-step procedure, we identified the first threshold at ∼1.4 eV, which we show arose from electron-hole...
