For each bulk component, the fraction $α$ is tuned to reproduce the experimental band gap, and the conduction and valence band edges are then located with respect to a reference level. The lineup of the bulk reference levels is determined through an interface calculation, and shown to be almost independent of the fraction $α$. Application of this scheme to the Si-SiO$_2$, SiC-SiO$_2$, and Si-HfO$_2$ interfaces yields excellent agreement with experiment.4 pages, 4 figuresMaterials Sciencetext
