This chapter reviews recent literature on band offsets of dielectrics and semiconductors to gallium oxide and its ternary alloy, aluminum gallium oxide. Band diagram principles are reviewed, and an X-Ray photoelectron spectroscopy method for accurate band offset measurement is discussed. Interface state density measurements of Ga2O3 MOS capacitors are reviewed, and Terman method results for the HfO2/β-Ga2O3 and ZrO2/β-Ga2O3 are presented. Fowler-Nordheim tunneling model was used to fit the leakage current for the HfO2/β-Ga2O3 MOS structure. A need for new dielectrics with both wide bandgap and high dielectric constant is noted, and possible new directions for research are presented.
