We have measured photoemission spectra of SrTiO3/LaTiO3 superlattices with a topmost SrTiO3 layer of variable thickness. Finite coherent spectral weight with a clear Fermi cut-off was observed at chemically abrupt SrTiO3/LaTiO3 interfaces,…
In semiconducting materials, electrostatic gating and light illumination are widely used stimuli to tune the electronic properties of the system. Here, we show a significant enhancement of photoresponse at the conducting interface of…
The perovskite SrTiO$_3$-LaAlO$_3$ structure has advanced to a model system to investigate the rich electronic phenomena arising at polar interfaces. Using first principles calculations and transport measurements we demonstrate that an…
To form a conducting layer at the interface between the oxide insulators LaAlO3 and SrTiO3, the LaAlO3 layer on the SrTiO3 substrate must be at least four unit-cells-thick. The LaAlO3 SrTiO3 heterointerface thus formed exhibits various…
The interfacial properties of Y0.6Pr0.4Ba2Cu3O7/La2/3Ca1/3MnO3 superlattices have been studied by resonant soft x-rays and diffuse scattered neutrons. Linearly polarized X-ray absorption at Cu L3 -edge reveals dramatic interfacial changes…
In pursuit of creating cuprate-like electronic and orbital structures, artificial heterostructures based on LaNiO$_3$ have inspired a wealth of exciting experimental and theoretical results. However, to date there is a very limited…
The interface between LaAlO3 and SrTiO3 hosts a two-dimensional electron system of itinerant carriers, although both oxides are band insulators. Interface ferromagnetism coexisting with superconductivity has been found and attributed to…
A magnetic field typically suppresses superconductivity by either breaking Cooper pairs via the Zeeman effect or inducing vortex formation. However, under certain circumstances, a magnetic field can stabilize superconductivity instead. This…
We use resonant soft x-ray scattering (RSXS) to quantify the hole distribution in a superlattice of insulating La2CuO4 (LCO) and overdoped La_{2-x}Sr_{x}CuO4 (LSCO). Despite its non-superconducting constituents, this structure is…
We have constructed microscopic, structurally-relaxed atomistic models of Si/SiO$_2$ superlattices. The structural distortion and oxidation-state characteristics of the interface Si atoms are examined in detail. The role played by the…
The emerging material class of complex-oxides, where manipulation of physical properties lead to new functionalities at their heterointerfaces, is expected to open new frontiers in Spintronics. For example, SrRuO_3 is a promising material…
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…
Charge redistribution at high-Tc superconductor interfaces and grain boundaries on the one hand is problematic for technological application. On the other hand, it gives rise to a great perspective for tailoring the local electronic states.…
The family of infinite-layer nickelates promises important insights into the mechanism of unconventional superconductivity. Since superconductivity has so far only been observed in epitaxial thin films, heteroepitaxy with the substrate or a…
The interface between the band gap insulators LaAlO3 and SrTiO3 is known to host a highly mobile two-dimensional electron gas. Here we report on the fabrication and characterization of the NdGaO3/SrTiO3 interface, that shares with…
Using advanced first-principles calculations we predict that the non-polar SrTiO$_3$/SrZrO$_3$ (001) interface, designed as either thin SrZrO$_3$ film deposited on SrTiO$_3$ or short-period (SrTiO$_3$)$_m$/(SrZrO$_3$)$_n$ superlattice, host…
We have performed angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy on a heterostructure consisting of topological insulator Bi2Te3 and iron chalcogenide FeTe fabricated on SrTiO3 substrate by molecular-beam-epitaxy technique. This system was…
Interface engineering in perovskite oxide superlattices has developed into a flourishing field, enabling not only further tuning of the exceptional properties, but also giving access to emergent physical phenomena. Here, we reveal a new…
Realizing non-volatile control of superconductivity is a key step toward integrating memory and quantum functionality in future information technologies. KTaO_3-based heterostructures uniquely host both interfacial two-dimensional…
Synchrotron X-ray diffraction has been used to study the thermal structure evolution in CuBa2Ca3Cu4O10+d (Cu1234), a superconductor which exhibits a high critical temperature (Tc 118 K), high critical current density and large upper…
