This mini-review is dedicated to the 85th birthday of Prof. L. V. Keldysh, from whom we have learned so much. In this paper we study the potential and electron density depth profiles in surface accumulation layers in crystals with a large…

We study the low temperature conductivity of the electron accumulation layer induced by the very strong electric field at the surface of $\text{SrTiO}_3$ sample. Due to the strongly nonlinear lattice dielectric response, the…

Performing an analysis within density functional theory, we develop insight into the structural and electronic properties of the oxide heterostructure LaAlO3/SrTiO3. Electrostatic surface effects are decomposed from the internal lattice…

We build a theoretical model for the electronic properties of the two-dimensional (2D) electron gas that forms at the interface between insulating SrTiO$_3$ and a number of polar cap layers, including LaTiO$_3$, LaAlO$_3$, and GdTiO$_3$.…

We present calculations of the charge density profile, subband occupancy and ellipsometry spectra of the electron gas at the LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interface. The calculations employ self-consistent Hartree and random phase approximations, a tight…

The mechanism responsible for the extraordinary interface conductivity of LaAlO$_{3}$ on SrTiO$_{3}$ and its insulator-metal transition remains controversial. Here, using density functional theory calculations, we establish a comprehensive…

Recently, it was established that a two-dimensional electron system can arise at the interface between two oxide insulators LaAlO3 and SrTiO3. This paradigmatic example exhibits metallic behaviour and magnetic properties between…

A combined experimental and theoretical investigation of the electronic structure of the archetypal oxide heterointerface system LaAlO3 on SrTiO3 is presented. High-resolution, hard x-ray photoemission is used to uncover the occupation of…

In complex oxide materials, changes in electronic properties are often associated with changes in crystal structure, raising the question of the relative roles of the electronic and lattice effects in driving the metal-insulator transition.…

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…

Due to the nonlinear dielectric response within SrTiO$_{3}$ (STO), an accumulation layer created by positive charges at the surface of the STO sample ($x=0$) has an electron density profile $n(x)$ that slowly decays as $1/x^{12/7}$. Here we…

For multilayered materials, reflectivity depends on the complex dielectric function of all the constituent layers, and a detailed analysis is required to separate them. Furthermore, for some cases, new quantum states can occur at the…

Localization of electrons in the two-dimensional electron gas at the LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ interface is investigated by varying the channel thickness in order to establish the nature of the conducting channel. Layers of SrTiO$_3$ were grown…

Metallic LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ (LAO/STO) interfaces attract enormous attention, but the relationship between the electron mobility and the sheet electron density, $n_s$, is poorly understood. Here we derive a simple expression for the…

With infrared ellipsometry and transport measurements we investigated the electrons at the interface between LaAlO3 and SrTiO3. We obtained a sheet carrier density of Ns~5-9x 10E13 cm^-2, an effective mass of m*~3m_e, and a strongly…

The two-dimensional electron gas found at the surface of SrTiO$_3$ and related interfaces has attracted significant attention as a promising basis for oxide electronics. In order to utilize its full potential, the response of this 2DEG to…

We present a tight binding description of electronic properties of the interface between LaAlO$_3$ (LAO) and SrTiO$_3$ (STO). The description assumes LAO and STO perovskites as sets of atomic layers in the $x$-$y$ plane, which are weakly…

The two-dimensional electron gas occurring between the band insulators SrTiO$_3$ and LaAlO$_3$ continues to attract considerable interest, due to the possibility of dynamic control over the carrier density, and the ensuing phenomena such as…

We study the decay of interface induced structural and electronic relaxation effects in epitaxial LaAlO3/SrTiO3 heterostructures. The results are based on first-principles band structure calculations for a multilayer configuration with an…

We carry out first-principles calculations of the nonlinear dielectric response of short-period ferroelectric superlattices. We compute and store not only the total polarization, but also the Wannier-based polarizations of individual atomic…
