Creation of high mobility two-dimensional electron gases via strain induced polarization at an otherwise nonpolar complex oxide interface.

چکیده
The discovery of two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) in SrTiO3-based heterostructures provides new opportunities for nanoelectronics. Herein, we create a new type of oxide 2DEG by the epitaxial-strain-induced polarization at an otherwise nonpolar perovskite-type interface of CaZrO3/SrTiO3. Remarkably, this heterointerface is atomically sharp and exhibits a high electron mobility exceeding 60,000 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1) at low temperatures. The 2DEG carrier density exhibits a critical dependence on the film thickness, in good agreement with the polarization induced 2DEG scheme.

We present a study of electron scattering processes in AlGaN/GaN two-dimensional electron gases. A theoretical study of the effect of deformation potential scattering from strain fields surrounding dislocations is presented. The most important scattering mechanisms limiting electron transport are identified. We find that for AlGaN/GaN 2DEGs, mobility is limited by alloy scattering at high 2DEG ...
