We have studied the electronic structure at the heterointerface between the band insulators LaAlO$_3$ and SrTiO$_3$ using $in situ$ photoemission spectroscopy. Our experimental results clearly reveal the formation of a notched structure on the SrTiO$_3$ side due to band bending at the metallic LaAlO$_3$/TiO$_2$-SrTiO$_3$ interface. The structure, however, is absent at the insulating LaAlO$_3$/SrO-SrTiO$_3$ interface. The present results indicate that the metallic states originate not from the charge transfer through the interface on a short-range scale but from the accumulation of carriers on a long-range scale.

We have studied the electronic properties of the 2D electron liquid present at the LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ interface in series of samples prepared at different growth temperatures. We observe that interfaces fabricated at 650{deg}C exhibit the highest lo
w temperature mobility ($approx 10000 textrm{ cm}^2/textrm{Vs}$) and the lowest sheet carrier density ($approx 5times 10^{12} textrm{ cm}^{-2}$). These samples show metallic behavior and Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations in their magnetoresistance. Samples grown at higher temperatures (800-900{deg}C) display carrier densities in the range of $approx 2-5 times 10^{13} textrm{ cm}^{-2}$ and mobilities of $approx 1000 textrm{ cm}^2/textrm{Vs}$ at 4K. Reducing their carrier density by field effect to $8times 10^{12} textrm{ cm}^{-2}$ lowers their mobilites to $approx 50 textrm{ cm}^2/textrm{Vs}$ bringing the conductance to the weak-localization regime.
Recent experiments have shown that transition metal oxide heterostructures such as SrTiO$_3$-based interfaces, exhibit large, gate tunable, spintronic responses. Our theoretical study showcases key factors controlling the magnitude of the conversion,
measured by the inverse Edelstein and Spin Hall effects, and their evolution with respect to an electrostatic doping. The origin of the response can be linked to spin-orbital textures. These stem from the broken inversion symmetry at the interface which produces an unusual form of the interfacial spin-orbit coupling, provided a bulk atomic spin-orbit contribution is present. The amplitudes and variations of these observables are direct consequences of the multi-orbital subband structure of these materials, featuring avoided and topological crossings. Interband contributions to the coefficients lead to enhanced responses and non-monotonic evolution with doping. We highlight these effects using analytical approaches and low energy modeling.
We report frictional drag measurements between two superconducting LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ nanowires. In these experiments, current passing through one nanowire induces a voltage across a nearby electrically isolated nanowire. The frictional drag signal
contains both symmetric and antisymmetric components. The antisymmetric component arises from the rectification of quantum shot noise in the drive nanowire by the broken symmetry in the drag nanowire. The symmetric component in the drag resistance is ascribed to rectification of thermal noise in the drive nanowire during superconducting-normal transition. The suppression of the symmetric component is observed when a normal nanowire is used as either a drag or drive nanowire with the other nanowire superconducting. The absence of symmetric drag resistance between a normal drag nanowire and a superconducting drive nanowire suggests a higher electron-hole asymmetry in the superconducting LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ nanowire arising from the 1D nature of superconductivity at LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ interface.
Ionic crystals terminated at oppositely charged polar surfaces are inherently unstable and expected to undergo surface reconstructions to maintain electrostatic stability. Essentially, an electric field that arises between oppositely charged atomic p
lanes gives rise to a built-in potential that diverges with thickness. In ultra thin film form however the polar crystals are expected to remain stable without necessitating surface reconstructions, yet the built-in potential has eluded observation. Here we present evidence of a built-in potential across polar lao ~thin films grown on sto ~substrates, a system well known for the electron gas that forms at the interface. By performing electron tunneling measurements between the electron gas and a metallic gate on lao ~we measure a built-in electric field across lao ~of 93 meV/AA. Additionally, capacitance measurements reveal the presence of an induced dipole moment near the interface in sto, illuminating a unique property of sto ~substrates. We forsee use of the ionic built-in potential as an additional tuning parameter in both existing and novel device architectures, especially as atomic control of oxide interfaces gains widespread momentum.
The 2-dimensional electron system at the interface between LaAlO$_{3}$ and SrTiO$_{3}$ has several unique properties that can be tuned by an externally applied gate voltage. In this work, we show that this gate-tunability extends to the effective ban
d structure of the system. We combine a magnetotransport study on top-gated Hall bars with self-consistent Schrodinger-Poisson calculations and observe a Lifshitz transition at a density of $2.9times10^{13}$ cm$^{-2}$. Above the transition, the carrier density of one of the conducting bands decreases with increasing gate voltage. This surprising decrease is accurately reproduced in the calculations if electronic correlations are included. These results provide a clear, intuitive picture of the physics governing the electronic structure at complex oxide interfaces.
