We have investigated the stability of O-polar ZnO (000 (1) over bar)-(1x1) surfaces with photoemission spectroscopy and low-energy electron diffraction. We present direct evidence of quasi-two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) formation (N-2D <= 2 x 10(13) cm(-2)) at the O-face from our angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy studies. These findings are discussed in terms of hydrogenation of the O-face by chemisorptions process and the energetic location of the charge-neutrality level of ZnO. Our results reveal insight into the role of hydrogen in forming the quasi-2DEG and stabilizing the O-polar nonreconstructed surface.
