The effective mass is one of the main factors for enlarging the Seebeck coefficient and electronic conductivity of SrTiO3-based thermoelectric materials [1,2]. The goal of this paper is to clarify, how superlattices can change the effective…

First-principles calculation was used to study the structural and electronic features of the low dimensional oxide structure, SrTiO_{3}/Sr_{1-x}La_{x}TiO_{3} (x=0.25) superlattices, constructed by submonolayer low dimensional La doping into…

Using advanced ab-initio calculations, we describe the formation and confinement of a two-dimensional electron gas in short-period ($\simeq$4 nm) Nb-doped SrTiO$_3$ superlattices as function of Nb doping. We predict complete two-dimensional…

The reduction of dimensionality is an efficient pathway to boost the performances of thermoelectric materials, it leads to the quantum confinement of the carriers and thus to large Seebeck coefficients (S) and it also suppresses the thermal…

By combining ab initio simulations including an on-site Coulomb repulsion term and Boltzmann theory, we explore the thermoelectric properties of (LaNiO$_3$)$_n$/(LaAlO$_3$)$_n$(001) superlattices ($n=1,3$) and identify a strong dependence…

A 2D electron gas system in an oxide heterostructure serves as an important playground for novel phenomena. Here, we show that, by using fractional delta-doping to control the interface's composition in LaxSr1-xTiO3/SrTiO3 artificial oxide…

Almost all oxide two-dimensional electron gases are formed in SrTiO$_3$-based heterostructures and the study of non-SrTiO$_3$ systems is extremely rare. Here, we report the realization of a two-dimensional electron gas in a CaTiO$_3$-based…

Two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) on the SrTiO3 (STO) surface or in STO-based heterostructures have exhibited many intriguing phenomena, which are strongly dependent on the 2DEG-carrier density. We report that the tunability of the…
