The two-dimensional electron gas at the surface of titanates gathered attention due to its potential to replace conventional silicon based semiconductors in the future. In this study, we investigated films of the parent perovskite CaTiO$_3$, grown by pulsed laser deposition, by means of angular-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. The films show a c(4x2) surface reconstruction after the growth that is reduced to a p(2x2) reconstruction under UV-light. At the CaTiO$_3$ film surface, a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) is found with an occupied band width of 400 meV. With our findings CaTiO$_3$ is added to the group of oxides with a 2DEG at their surface. Our study widens the phase space to investigate strontium and barium doped CaTiO$_3$ and the interplay of ferroelectric properties with the 2DEG at oxide surfaces. This could open up new paths to tailor two-dimensional transport properties of these systems towards possible applications.

We study the effect of magnetic field on the properties of a high mobility gated two-dimensional electron gas in a field effect transistor with the Hall bar geometry. When approaching the current saturation when the drain side of the channel becomes
strongly depleted, we see a number of unusual effects related to the magnetic field induced re-distribution of the electron density in the conducting channel. The experimental results obtained in the non-linear regime have been interpreted based on the results obtained in the linear regime by a simple theoretical model, which describes quite well our observations.
Strong Rashba spin-orbit coupling (SOC) of the two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the oxide interface $mathrm{LaAlO_{3}/SrTiO_{3}}$ underlies a variety of exotic physics, but its nature is still under debate. We derive an effective Hamiltonian fo
r the 2DEG at the oxide interface $mathrm{LaAlO_{3}/SrTiO_{3}}$ and find a different anisotropic Rashba SOC for the $d_{xz}$ and $d_{yz}$ orbitals. This anisotropic Rashba SOC leads to anisotropic static spin susceptibilities and also distinctive behavior of the spin Hall conductivity. These unique spin responses may be used to determine the nature of the Rashba SOC experimentally and shed light on the orbital origin of the 2DEG.
The two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the interface between LaAlO$_3$ (LAO) and SrTiO$_3$ (STO) has become one of the most fascinating and highly-debated oxide systems of recent times. Here we propose that a one-dimensional electron gas (1DEG) c
an be engineered at the step edges of the LAO/STO interface. These predictions are supported by first principles calculations and electrostatic modeling which elucidate the origin of the 1DEG as an electronic reconstruction to compensate a net surface charge in the step edge. The results suggest a novel route to increasing the functional density in these electronic interfaces.
We explore the second order bilinear magnetoelectric resistance (BMER) effect in the d-electron-based two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the SrTiO3 (111) surface. We find an evidence of a spin-split band structure with the archetypal spin-momentu
m locking of the Rashba effect for the in-plane component. Under an out-of-plane magnetic field, we find a BMER signal that breaks the six-fold symmetry of the electronic dispersion, which is a fingerprint for the presence of a momentum dependent out-of-plane spin component. Relativistic electronic structure calculations reproduce this spin-texture and indicate that the out-of-plane component is a ubiquitous property of oxide 2DEGs arising from strong crystal field effects. We further show that the BMER response of the SrTiO3 (111) 2DEG is tunable and unexpectedly large.
Using scanning gate microscopy (SGM), we probe the scattering between a beam of electrons and a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) as a function of the beams injection energy, and distance from the injection point. At low injection energies, we find
electrons in the beam scatter by small-angles, as has been previously observed. At high injection energies, we find a surprising result: placing the SGM tip where it back-scatters electrons increases the differential conductance through the system. This effect is explained by a non-equilibrium distribution of electrons in a localized region of 2DEG near the injection point. Our data indicate that the spatial extent of this highly non-equilibrium distribution is within ~1 micrometer of the injection point. We approximate the non-equilibrium region as having an effective temperature that depends linearly upon injection energy.
