In this article, the authors report the electrical properties of atomic layer deposited Al 2 O 3 =InN interfaces evaluated by capacitance-voltage (C-V), current-voltage (I-V), and x-ray photoemission spectroscopy techniques. I-V characteristics show low leakage currents (300 pA=lm 2) in the deposited dielectrics. However, C-V curves show that ex situ surface treatments with hydrochloric acid, ammonium sulfide, and hydrobromic acid has little effect on the surface electron accumulation layer, with an estimated interface state density over 4 Â 10 13 =cm 2. The effect of the surface treatments on valance band offset between Al 2 O 3 and InN was also investigated. V
