The integration of III-V semiconductors on functional perovskite-oxide can lead to new material properties and new device applications by combining the rich properties of perovskite-oxides together with the superior optical and electronic properties of III-V semiconductors. The structural and electronic properties of the surface and interface of the GaAs/BaTiO3 are studied using first-principles calculations. We point out the energetically favorable GaAs/BaTiO3 interfaces according to the GaAs initial adsorption on the BaTiO3(001) substrate. Our calculations predict the existence of the metallic behavior at the GaAs/BaTiO3 interfaces.
