Proposal of a one-dimensional electron gas in the steps at the LaAlO3-SrTiO3 interface.
The two-dimensional electron gas at the interface between LaAlO(3) and SrTiO(3) has become one of the most fascinating and highly debated oxide systems of recent times. Here we propose that a one-dimensional electron gas can be engineered at the step edges of the LaAlO(3)/SrTiO(3) interface. These predictions are supported by first-principles calculations and electrostatic modeling which elucid...
متن کاملPolarization discontinuity induced two-dimensional electron gas at ZnO/Zn(Mg)O interfaces: A first-principles study
discontinuity induced two-dimensional electron gas at ZnO/Zn(Mg)O interfaces: A first-principles study" (2013). Evgeny Tsymbal Publications. 63. The discovery of a high-mobility two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in wurtzite ZnO/Zn(Mg)O heterostructures is promising for applications due to the high mobility of the carriers. In this paper, we study the formation and properties of the 2DEG at Zn...
متن کاملTailoring the Two Dimensional Electron Gas at Polar ABO3/SrTiO3 Interfaces for Oxide Electronics
The 2D electron gas at the polar/non-polar oxide interface has become an important platform for several novel oxide electronic devices. In this paper, the transport properties of a wide range of polar perovskite oxide ABO3/SrTiO3 (STO) interfaces, where ABO3 includes LaAlO3, PrAlO3, NdAlO3, NdGaO3 and LaGaO3 in both crystalline and amorphous forms, were investigated. A robust 4 unit cell (uc) c...
متن کاملQuantum nature of two-dimensional electron gas confinement at LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interfaces.
We perform density functional calculations to understand the mechanism controlling the confinement width of the two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at LaAlO_{3}/SrTiO_{3} interfaces. We find that the 2DEG confinement can be explained by the formation of metal induced gap states (MIGS) in the band gap of SrTiO3. These states are formed as the result of quantum-mechanical tunneling of the charge ...
متن کاملA high-mobility two-dimensional electron gas at the spinel/perovskite interface of γ-Al2O3/SrTiO3.
The discovery of two-dimensional electron gases at the heterointerface between two insulating perovskite-type oxides, such as LaAlO(3) and SrTiO(3), provides opportunities for a new generation of all-oxide electronic devices. Key challenges remain for achieving interfacial electron mobilities much beyond the current value of approximately 1,000 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1) (at low temperatures). Here we c...
