The metallic interface between two oxide insulators, such as LaAlO3/SrTiO3 (LAO/STO), provides new opportunities for electronics and spintronics. However, due to the presence of multiple orbital populations, tailoring the interfacial…
Using a low-temperature conductive-tip atomic force microscope in cross-section geometry we have characterized the local transport properties of the metallic electron gas that forms at the interface between LaAlO3 and SrTiO3. At low…
The LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ interface hosts a plethora of gate-tunable electronic phases. Gating of LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ interfaces are usually assumed to occur electrostatically. However, increasing evidence suggests that non-local interactions…
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 observation of a two dimensional electron gas (2DEG) (1, 2), superconductivity (3, 4), magnetic effects (5) and electronic phase separation (6-8) at the interfaces of insulating oxides, especially LaAlO3/SrTiO3, has further enhanced the…
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…
Integrating multiple properties in a single system is crucial for the continuous developments in electronic devices. However, some physical properties are mutually exclusive in nature. Here, we report the coexistence of two seemingly…
The transport and thermoelectric properties of the interface between SrTiO$_3$ and a 26-monolayer thick LaAlO$_3$-layer grown at high oxygen-pressure have been investigated at temperatures from 4.2 K to 100 K and in magnetic fields up to 18…
The high-mobility conducting interface (CI) between LaAlO_{3}(LAO) and SrTiO_{3}(STO) has revealed many fascinating phenomena, including exotic magnetism and superconductivity. But, the formation mechanism of the CI has not been…
The heterostructure consisting of the Mott insulator LaVO$_3$ and the band insulator SrTiO$_3$ is considered a promising candidate for future photovoltaic applications. Not only does the (direct) excitation gap of LaVO$_3$ match well the…
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…
We report on surface effects on the electronic properties of interfaces in epitaxial LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ heterostructures. Our results are based on first-principles electronic structure calculations for well-relaxed multilayer…
Here we investigate LaAlO_3-SrTiO_3 heterostructure with\delta-doping of the interface by LaMnO_3 at less than one monolayer. This doping strongly inhibits the formation of mobile electron layer at the interface. This results in giant…
At the (001) interface between the two band-insulators LaAlO3 and SrTiO3, a high-mobility electron gas may appear, which has been the object of numerous works over the last four years. Its origin is a subject of debate between the interface…
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…
In recent years, striking discoveries have revealed that two-dimensional electron liquids (2DEL) confined at the interface between oxide band-insulators can be engineered to display a high mobility transport. The recognition that only few…
Polar discontinuities occurring at interfaces between two different materials constitute both a challenge and an opportunity in the study and application of a variety of devices. In order to cure the large electric field occurring in such…
At the LaAlO$_3$-SrTiO$_3$ interface, electronic phase transitions can be triggered by modulation of the charge carrier density, making this system an excellent prospect for the realization of versatile electronic devices. Here, we report…
We use density functional theory calculations to show that the LaAlO3|SrTiO3 interface between insulating perovskite oxides is borderline in satisfying the Stoner criterion for itinerant ferromagnetism and explore other oxide combinations…
The emerging field of complex oxide interfaces is generically built on one of the most celebrated substrates - strontium titanate (SrTiO3). This material hosts a range of phenomena, including ferroelasticity, incipient ferroelectricity, and…
