Correlation between the energy location of the minimum density of the interface states in insulator-semiconductor systems and the location of the Fermi level pinning in metal-semiconductor systems is reported. The correlation extends over the major III-V semiconductors, which can be explained by the surface disorder model. The unified defect model is not capable of explaining the present correlation.
