The effect of an ambient environment on the surface photovoltage and photoluminescence observed for GaN is studied. In air ambient the upward band bending gradually increases under UV illumination and is explained by the photoinduced chemisorption of surface adsorbates. Specifically, the increase in negative surface charge is consistent with the transfer of electrons from surface states or bulk to oxygen species physisorbed at the GaN surface. In contrast, the upward band bending gradually decreases in vacuum under UV illumination and can be explained by the photoinduced desorption of these species. The photoadsorption and photodesorption of negatively charged species cause the surface depletion region to increase and decrease, respectively. This change in depletion region width is consistent with the observed decrease in photoluminescence intensity in air ambient and its significant increase in vacuum for a sample with low free electron concentration.
