Structural transition in LaVO3/SrVO3 superlattices and its influence on transport properties

Abstract

Measurements of the resistive properties and the lattice parameters of a (LaVO3)[6 unit cells]/(SrVO3)[1 unit cell] superlattice between 10K and room temperature are presented. A low temperature metallic phase compatible with a Fermi liquid behavior is evidenced. It disappears in the vicinity of a structural transition from a monoclinic to tetragonal phase, in which disorder seems to strongly influence the transport. Our results will enrich the understanding of the electronic properties of complex heterostructures.
