Anisotropic magnetoresistance and negative magnetoresistance for in-plane fields are compared for the LaAlO3 /SrTiO3 interface and the symmetric Nb-doped SrTiO3 heterostructure. Both effects are exceptionally strong in LaAlO3 /SrTiO3 . We analyze their temperature, magnetic field and gate voltage dependencies and find them to arise from a Rashba type spin-orbit coupling with magnetic scatterers that have two contributions to their potential: spin exchange and Coulomb interaction. Atomic spin-orbit coupling is sufficient to explain the small effects observed in Nb-doped SrTiO3 . These results clarify contradicting transport interpretations in SrTiO3 -based heterostructures.

Rectifying semiconductor junctions are crucial to electronic devices. They convert alternating current into direct one by allowing unidirectional charge flows. In analogy to the current-flow rectification for itinerary electrons, here, a polar rectif
ication that based on the localized oxygen vacancies (OVs) in a Ti/fatigued-SrTiO3 (fSTO) Schottky junction is first demonstrated. The fSTO with OVs is produced by an electro-degradation process. The different movability of localized OVs and itinerary electrons in the fSTO yield a unidirectional electric polarization at the interface of the junction under the coaction of external and built-in electric fields. Moreover, the fSTO displays a pre-ferroelectric state located between paraelectric and ferroelectric phases. The pre-ferroelectric state has three sub-states and can be easily driven into a ferroelectric state by external electric field. These observations open up opportunities for potential polar devices and may underpin many useful polar-triggered electronic phenomena.
We present a simple model that we believe captures the key aspects of the competition between superconducting and insulating states in twisted bilayer graphene. Within this model, the superconducting phase is primary, and arises at generic fillings,
but is interrupted by the insulator at commensurate fillings. Importantly, the insulator forms because of electron-electron interactions, but the model is agnostic as to the superconducting pairing mechanism, which need not originate with electron-electron interactions. The model is composed of a collection of crossed one-dimensional quantum wires whose intersections form a superlattice. At each superlattice point, we place a locally superconducting puddle which can exchange Cooper pairs with the quantum wires. We analyze this model assuming weak wire-puddle and wire-wire couplings. We show that for a range of repulsive intrawire interactions, the system is superconducting at `generic incommensurate fillings, with the superconductivity being `interrupted by an insulating phase at commensurate fillings. We further show that the gapped insulating states at commensurate fillings give way to gapless states upon application of external Zeeman fields. These features are consistent with experimental observations in magic-angle twisted bilayer graphenes despite the distinct microscopic details. We further study the full phase diagram of this model and discover that it contains several distinct correlated insulating states, which we characterize herein.
Using SrRuO3-based thin film heterostructures, we aim to resolve the two debated interpretations that distinguish between the genuine Topological Hall Effect (THE) and the artefactual humps produced from overlapping double Karplus-Luttinger Anomalous
Hall Effects (KL-AHE), without magnetic imaging. Firstly, we selected two heterostructures with similar Hall Effect but with contrasting octahedral rotations/tilts, providing a clue to determining the presence/absence of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Interaction. Secondly, we employ the {theta}-rotation of magnetic field from out-of-plane to in-plane as the critical judgemental tool. The first heterostructure showing field-position of Hall hump diverging with ~1/cos({theta}) is correctly reproduced using the double KL-AHEs. Yet, the second one showing constant hump field versus {theta} behaviour agrees with a micromagnetic simulation with Neel-Skyrmions and is thus convincingly assigned as THE. Lastly, for a general system evolving with increasing magnetic field from two-dimensional Skyrmion-lattice into collinear ferromagnetic in the real-space, we further discuss about the corresponding evolution of k-space band structure from gapped massive Dirac Fermion into Weyl Fermion, consistent to past literatures. Its associated transformation from Mirror Anomaly into Chiral Anomaly is detectable via electrical transport and further assisted in resolving the aforementioned debate. We hence emphasize the two schemes as useful, generic electrical measurement protocols for future search of magnetic Skyrmions.
Two-dimensional electron systems found at the interface of SrTiO3-based oxide heterostructures often display anisotropic electric transport whose origin is currently under debate. To characterize transport along specific crystallographic directions,
we developed a hard-mask patterning routine based on an amorphous CeO2 template layer. The technique allows preparing well-defined microbridges by conventional ultraviolet photolithography which, in comparison to standard techniques such as ion- or wet-chemical etching, does not induce any degradation of interfacial conductance. The patterning scheme is described in details and the successful production of microbridges based on amorphous Al2O3-SrTiO3 heterostructures is demonstrated. Significant anisotropic transport is observed for T < 30 K which is mainly related to impurity/defect scattering of charge carriers in these heterostructures.
Despite its simple structure and low degree of electronic correlation, SrTiO$_3$ (STO) features collective phenomena linked to charge transport and, ultimately, superconductivity, that are not yet fully explained. Thus, a better insight in the nature
of the quasiparticles shaping the electronic and conduction properties of STO is needed. We studied the low energy excitations of bulk STO and of the LaAlO$_{3}$/SrTiO$_{3}$ two dimensional electron gas (2DEG) by Ti L$_3$ edge resonant inelastic x-ray scattering. In all samples, we find the hallmark of polarons in the form of intense $dd$+phonon excitations, and a decrease of the LO3-mode electron-phonon coupling when going from insulating to highly conducting STO single crystals and heterostructures. Both results are attributed to the dynamic screening of the large polaron self-induced polarization, showing that the low temperature physics of STO and STO-based 2DEGs is dominated by large polaron quasiparticles.
