First-principles calculations demonstrate the evolution of the band alignment at La0.7A0.3MnO3|La1-xAx|TiO2|SrTiO3(001) heterointerfaces, where A = Ca, Sr, or Ba, as the interfacial A-site composition, La1-Ax, is varied from x = 0.5 to x =…
The Schottky barrier heights (SBHs) of defect-free interfaces of ZnO, CdO, MgO and SrO with various metals and different terminations are investigated by density functional supercell calculations. The oxide bands are corrected for their…
Internal photoemission spectroscopy was used to determine the Schottky barrier height in rectifying SrRuO3/Nb-doped SrTiO3 junctions for 0.01 wt % and 0.5 wt % Nb concentrations. Good agreement was obtained with the barrier height deduced…
An atomistic insight into potential barrier formation and band bending at the interface between a metal and an n-type semiconductor is achieved by ab initio simulations and model analysis of a prototype Schottky diode, i.e., niobium doped…
The problem of Fermi-level pinning at semiconductor-metal contacts is readdressed starting from first-principles calculations for Al/GaAs. We give quantitative evidence that the Schottky barrier height is very little affected by any…

Using a first-principle pseudopotential approach, we have investigated the Schottky barrier heights of abrupt Al/Ge, Al/GaAs, Al/AlAs, and Al/ZnSe (100) junctions, and their dependence on the semiconductor chemical composition and surface…
Ferroelectric polar displacements have recently been observed in conducting electron-doped BaTiO3. The co-existence of a ferroelectric phase and conductivity opens the door to new functionalities which may provide a unique route for novel…
This paper reports on the modulation of Schottky barrier heights (SBH) on three different orientations of $\beta$-Ga$_2$O$_3$ by insertion of an ultra-thin SiO$_2$ dielectric interlayer at the metal-semiconductor junction, which can…
We observed a strong modulation in the current-voltage characteristics of SrRuO$_3$/Nb:SrTiO$_3$ Schottky junctions by Mn substitution in SrRuO$_3$, which induces a metal-insulator transition in bulk. The temperature dependence of the…
The Schottky barrier height (SBH) is mapped with nanoscale resolution at pure Au/Si(001) and mixed Au/Ag/Si(001) interfaces utilizing ballistic electron emission microscopy (BEEM) by acquiring and fitting spectra every 11.7 nm over a 1…
SrRuO3 (SRO), a conducting transition metal oxide, is commonly used for engineering domains in BiFeO3. New oxide devices can be envisioned by integrating SRO with an oxide semiconductor as Nb doped SrTiO3 (Nb:STO). Using a three-terminal…

Perovskite oxide heteroepitaxy receives much attention because of the possibility to com- bine the diverse functionalities of perovskite oxide building blocks. A general boundary con- dition for the epitaxy is the presence of polar…
