At crystalline interfaces where a valence mismatch exists, electronic and structural interactions may occur to relieve the polar mismatch leading to the stabilization of non-bulklike phases. We show that spontaneous reconstructions at polar…

In polar oxide interfaces phenomena such as conductivity, superconductivity, magnetism, one-dimensional conductivity and Quantum Hall states can emerge at the polar discontinuity. Combining controllable ferroelectricity at such interfaces…
Amorphous insulating oxides play a significant role in the contemporary electronic industry. Understanding the band alignment of heterogeneous interfaces containing amorphous structures helps to better control the carrier transport property…
Oxide interfaces feature unique two-dimensional (2D) electronic systems with diverse electronic properties such as tunable spin-orbit interaction and superconductivity. Conductivity emerges in these interfaces when the thickness of an…
The observation of magnetic interaction at the interface between nonmagnetic oxides has attracted much attention in recent years. In this report, we show that the Kondo-like scattering at the SrTiO3-based conducting interface is enhanced by…

Low dimensionality, broken symmetry and easily-modulated carrier concentrations provoke novel electronic phase emergence at oxide interfaces. However, the spatial extent of such reconstructions - i.e. the interfacial "depth" - remains…
The discovery of a two-dimensional (2D) electron gas at the (110)-oriented LaAlO3/SrTiO3 in- terface provided us with the opportunity to probe the effect of crystallographic orientation and the ensuing electronic reconstructions on…
Transition metal oxides have generated significant interest for their potential as catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline environments. Iron and nickel-based perovskite oxides have proven particularly promising, with…

Epitaxial interfaces and superlattices comprised of polar and non-polar perovskite oxides have generated considerable interest because they possess a range of desirable properties for functional devices. In this work, emergent polarization…
Interfaces between complex oxides constitute a unique playground for 2D electron systems (2DES), where superconductivity and magnetism can arise from combinations of bulk insulators. The 2DES at the LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interface is one of the…
Unlike widely explored complex oxide heterostructures grown along [001], the study of [111]-oriented heterointerfaces are very limited thus far. One of the main challenges is to overcome the polar discontinuity that hinders the epitaxy of…
LaCrO$_3$ (LCO) / SrTiO$_3$ (STO) heterojunctions are intriguing due to a polar discontinuity along (001), two distinct and controllable interface structures [(LaO)$^+$/(TiO$_2$)$^0$ and (SrO)$^0$/(CrO$_2$)$^-$], and interface-induced…
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…

A large number of published experimental works suggest that when the Fe ions in orthorhombic LaFeO3 are substituted, band gap reduction is expected. However, recent experimental works observe band gap enhancement with increasing Ti ions…
At the (001) interface between the two band-insulators LaAlO3 and SrTiO3, a high-mobility electron gas may appear, which has been the object of numerous works over the last four years. Its origin is a subject of debate between the interface…
Interface engineering in complex oxide heterostructures has developed into a flourishing field as various intriguing physical phenomena can be demonstrated which are otherwise absent in their constituent bulk compounds. Here we present…
