چکیده
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 LaVO3 thickness-dependent metal-insulator transition and low temperature anomalous Hall effect. The (001) p-type VO_{2}/SrO/TiO_{2} interface, formed by inserting a single layer of bulk metallic SrVO3 or SrO, drives the interface insulating. The (110) heterointerface is also insulating, indicating interface conduction arising from electronic reconstructions.

Enhanced Tunneling Electroresistance in Ferroelectric Tunnel Junctions due to the Reversible Metallization of the Barrier.
Realizing a large tunneling electroresistance (TER) effect is crucial for device application of ferroelectric tunnel junctions (FTJs). FTJs are typically composed of a thin ferroelectric layer sandwiched by two metallic electrodes, where TER generally results from the dependence of the effective tunneling barrier height on the ferroelectric polarization. Since the resistance depends exponential...
متن کاملQuantum Critical Origin of the Superconducting Dome in SrTiO_{3}.
We expand the well-known notion that quantum criticality can induce superconductivity by proposing a concrete mechanism for superconductivity due to quantum ferroelectric fluctuations. To this end, we investigate the origin of superconductivity in doped SrTiO_{3} using a combination of density functional and strong coupling theories within the framework of quantum criticality. Our density funct...
متن کاملQuantization of Hall Resistance at the Metallic Interface between an Oxide Insulator and SrTiO_{3}.
The two-dimensional metal forming at the interface between an oxide insulator and SrTiO_{3} provides new opportunities for oxide electronics. However, the quantum Hall effect, one of the most fascinating effects of electrons confined in two dimensions, remains underexplored at these complex oxide heterointerfaces. Here, we report the experimental observation of quantized Hall resistance in a Sr...
متن کاملElectric Field Control of Spin Lifetimes in Nb-SrTiO_{3} by Spin-Orbit Fields.
We show electric field control of the spin accumulation at the interface of the oxide semiconductor Nb-SrTiO_{3} with Co/AlO_{x} spin injection contacts at room temperature. The in-plane spin lifetime τ_{∥}, as well as the ratio of the out-of-plane to in-plane spin lifetime τ_{⊥}/τ_{∥}, is manipulated by the built-in electric field at the semiconductor surface, without any additional gate conta...

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...
