Oxide growth with semiconductor-like accuracy has led to atomically precise thin films and interfaces that exhibit a plethora of phases and functionalities not found in the oxide bulk material. This yielded spectacular discoveries such as…

The 5d iridium-based transition metal oxides have gained broad interest because of their strong spin-orbit coupling which favors new or exotic quantum electronic states. On the other hand, they rarely exhibit more mainstream orders like…

The rich electron correlations and highly coherent transport in reconfigurable devices sketched by a conductive atomic force microscope tip at the LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interface have enabled the oxide platform an ideal playground for studying…

Motivated by experiments on atomically smooth layers of LaTiO$_3$, a Mott insulator, sandwiched between layers of SrTiO$_3$, a band insulator, a simple model for such heterostructures is studied using quasi one-dimensional lattices and the…

We investigate the angular dependence of the magnetoresistance of thin (< 1 nm), metallic SrTiO3 quantum wells epitaxially embedded in insulating, ferrimagnetic GdTiO3 and insulating, antiferromagnetic SmTiO3, respectively. The SrTiO3…

Possible ferromagnetism induced in otherwise non-magnetic materials has been motivating intense research in complex oxide heterostructures. Here we show that a confined magnetism is realized at the interface between SrTiO3 and two…

We have investigated the transport properties of LaVO_3/SrTiO_3 Mott insulator/band insulator heterointerfaces for various configurations. The (001)-oriented n-type VO_2/LaO/TiO_2 polar discontinuity is conducting, exhibiting a LaVO_3…

Interfaces between complex oxides are emerging as one of the most interesting playgrounds in condensed matter physics. In this special setting, in which translational symmetry is artificially broken, a variety of novel electronic phases can…

We investigate the electronic properties of the LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interface using density functional theory. In contrast to previous studies, which relied on (semi-)local functionals and the GGA+U method, we here use a recently developed hybrid…

The relative importance of atomic defects and electron transfer in explaining conductivity at the crystalline LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interface has been a topic of debate. Metallic interfaces with similar electronic properties produced by amorphous…

The discovery of two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at well-defined interfaces between insulating complex oxides provides the opportunity for a new generation of all-oxide electronics. Particularly, the 2DEG at the interface between two…

Controlling the coupling between localized spins and itinerant electrons can lead to exotic magnetic states. A novel system featuring local magnetic moments and extended 2D electrons is the interface between LaAlO3 and SrTiO3. The magnetism…

Ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) electronic systems at the interfaces of layered materials are highly desirable platforms for exploring of novel quantum phenomena and developing advanced device applications. Here, we investigate ultrathin…

A long skinny gate across a fractional quantum Hall fluid at filling $\nu=1/m$ with odd integer $m$, creates a novel one-dimensional (1d) system which is isomorphic to a disordered 1d electron gas with {\it attractive} interactions. By…

Strong Coulomb repulsion and spin-orbit coupling are known to give rise to exotic physical phenomena in transition metal oxides. Initial attempts to investigate systems where both of these fundamental interactions are comparably strong,…

Recent work has extended topological band theory to open, non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, yet little is understood about how non-Hermiticity alters the topological quantization of associated observables. We address this problem by studying the…

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…

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…

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…

Using tunneling spectroscopy we have measured the spectral density of states of the mobile, two-dimensional electron system generated at the LaAlO3-SrTiO3 interface. As shown by the density of states the interface electron system differs…
