Abstract

Transport properties of SrTiO3_3-channel field-effect transistors with parylene organic gate insulator have been investigated. By applying gate voltage, the sheet resistance falls below RR_{\Box} \sim 10 kΩ\Omega at low temperatures, with carrier mobility exceeding 1000 cm2^2/Vs. The temperature dependence of the sheet resistance taken under constant gate voltage exhibits metallic behavior (dRdR/dTdT >> 0). Our results demonstrate an insulator to metal transition in SrTiO3_3 driven by electrostatic carrier density control.
