The energy distribution of surface states in the semiconductor band-gap has been obtained spectroscopically from measurements of X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) under biases. The XPS measurements are performed for [ca. 30 angstrom-thick Pt/ca. 25 angstrom-thick oxide/p-InP (100)] MIS diodes. The difference in binding energy between the In(3d) and Pt(4f) peaks, E(In)-E(Pt), is changed by applying biases, because of accumulation of charges in the surface states. The energy distribution of the surface states is determined by analyzing the amount of the bias-induced shift in E(In)-E(Pt). The density of the surface states is high near the mid-gap, near the conduction band minimum and near the valence band maximum.
