We have investigated the properties of interfaces between LaAlO3 films grown on SrTiO3 substrates singly terminated by TiO2. We used RF sputtering in a high-pressure oxygen atmosphere. The films are smooth, with flat surfaces. Transmission…
Cuprate high temperature superconductors consist of two quasi-two-dimensional (2D) substructures: CuO2 superconducting layers and charge reservoir layers. The superconductivity is realized by charge transfer from the charge reservoir layers…
We present a first-principles study of the electronic structures and properties of ideal (atomically sharp) LaAlO3/SrTiO3 (001) heterointerfaces and their variants such as a new class of quantum well systems. We demonstrate the…
Ultra-thin tri-color (tri-layer) titanate superlattices ([3u.c. LaTiO3/2u.c. SrTiO3/3u.c. YTiO3], u.c. = unit cells) were grown in a layer-by-layer way on single crystal TbScO3 (110) substrates by pulsed laser deposition. High sample…
We report the formation of a non-magnetic band insulator at the isopolar interface between the antiferromagnetic Mott-Hubbard insulator LaTiO3 and the antiferromagnetic charge transfer insulator LaFeO3. By density functional theory…
Thin film synthesis methods developed over the past decades have unlocked emergent interface properties ranging from conductivity to ferroelectricity. However, our attempts to exercise precise control over interfaces are constrained by a…
Motivated by recent experiments demonstrating the creation of atomically sharp interfaces between hexagonal sapphire and cubic SrTiO$_3$ with finite twist, we here develop and study a general electronic band theory for this novel class of…
Interface structure at polar/non-polar interfaces has been shown to be a key factor in controlling emergent behavior in oxide heterostructures, including the LaFeO$_3$/$\textit{n}$-SrTiO$_3$ system. We demonstrate via high energy resolution…
The two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) found in KTaO3-based interfaces has garnered attention due to its remarkable electronic properties. In this study, we investigated the conducting system embedded at the Si3N4/Al//KTO(110)…
Atomically sharp oxide heterostructures exhibit a range of novel physical phenomena that do not occur in the parent bulk compounds. The most prominent example is the appearance of highly conducting and superconducting states at the…
Charge redistribution at interfaces is crucial for electronic applications of high-Tc superconductors, since the band structure is modified on a local scale. We address the normal-state electronic structure of YBa2Cu3O7 (YBCO) at an…
We have studied the transport properties of LaTiO3/SrTiO3 (LTO/STO) heterostructures. In spite of 2D growth observed in reflection high energy electron diffraction, Transmission Electron Microscopy images revealed that the samples tend to…
We investigate the structural, electronic, transport, and thermoelectric properties of LaNiO$_3$/SrTiO$_3(001)$ superlattices containing either exclusively $n$- or $p$-type interfaces or coupled interfaces of opposite polarity by using…
SrTiO$_3$ is a superconducting semiconductor with a pairing mechanism that is not well understood. SrTiO$_3$ undergoes a ferroelastic transition at $T=$ 105 K, leading to the formation of domains with boundaries that can couple to…
The interface of complex oxide heterostructures sets the stage for various electronic and magnetic phenomena. Many of these collective effects originate from the precise structural arrangement at the interface that in turn governs local…
Oxide heterostructures have repeatedly been shown to display apical properties at the interfaces, some of which favorable to the formation of two-dimensional electron systems, as well as high transition temperature superconductivity. In…
Design of epitaxial interfaces is a pivotal way to engineer artificial structures where new electronic phases can emerge. Here we report a systematic emergence of interfacial superconducting state in epitaxial heterostructures of LaTiO3 and…
The recent discovery of superconductivity in Sr-doped NdNiO$_2$ films grown on SrTiO$_3$ started a novel field within unconventional superconductivity. To understand the similarities and differences between nickelate and cuprate layers on…
The recent observation of superconductivity at the interfaces between KTaO3 and EuO (or LaAlO3) offers a new example of emergent phenomena at oxide interfaces. This superconductivity exhibits an unusual strong dependence on the crystalline…
Depositing disordered Al on top of SrTiO$_3$ is a cheap and easy way to create a two-dimensional electron system in the SrTiO$_3$ surface layers. To facilitate future device applications we passivate the heterostructure by a disordered…
