Model of two-dimensional electron gas formation at ferroelectric interfaces

Journal Article Aguado-Puente, P. ; Bristowe, N. C. ; Yin, B. ; ... - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

The formation of a two-dimensional electron gas at oxide interfaces as a consequence of polar discontinuities has generated an enormous amount of activity due to the variety of interesting effects it gives rise to. Here, we study under what circumstances similar processes can also take place underneath ferroelectric thin films. We use a simple Landau model to demonstrate that in the absence of extrinsic screening mechanisms, a monodomain phase can be stabilized in ferroelectric films by means of an electronic reconstruction. Unlike in the LaAlO3/SrTiO3 heterostructure, the emergence with thickness of the free charge at the interface is discontinuous. Thismore »« less

Tailoring a two-dimensional electron gas at the LaAlO{sub 3}/SrTiO{sub 3} (001) interface by epitaxial strain.

Journal Article Bark, C W ; Felker, D A ; Wang, Y ; ... - Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A.

Recently a metallic state was discovered at the interface between insulating oxides, most notably LaAlO{sub 3} and SrTiO{sub 3}. Properties of this two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) have attracted significant interest due to its potential applications in nanoelectronics. Control over this carrier density and mobility of the 2DEG is essential for applications of these unique systems, and may be achieved by epitaxial strain. However, despite the rich nature of strain effects on oxide materials properties, such as ferroelectricity, magnetism, and superconductivity, the relationship between the strain and electrical properties of the 2DEG at the LaAlO{sub 3}/SrTiO{sub 3} heterointerface remains largely unexplored.more »« less

Direct observation of polarization-induced two-dimensional electron/hole gases at ferroelectric-insulator interface

Journal Article Huyan, Huaixun ; Addiego, Christopher ; Yan, Xingxu ; ... - npj Quantum Materials

Abstract Two-dimensional electron gas or hole gas (2DEG or 2DHG) and their functionalities at artificial heterostructure interfaces have attracted extensive attention in recent years. Many theoretical calculations and recent experimental studies have shown the formation of alternating 2DEG and 2DHG at ferroelectric/insulator interfaces, such as BiFeO ₃ /TbScO ₃ , depending on the different polarization states. However, a direct observation based on the local charge distribution at the BiFeO ₃ /TbScO ₃ interface has yet to be explored. Herein we demonstrate the direct observation of 2DHG and 2DEG at BiFeO ₃ /TbScO ₃ interface using four-dimensional scanning transmission electron microscopymore »« less

Ferroelectric Switching of Pure Spin Polarization in Two-Dimensional Electron Gas

Journal Article Du, Er-Wei ; Gong, Shi-Jing ; Tang, Xiaodong ; ... - Nano Letters

Two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) created at compound interfaces can exhibit a broad range of exotic physical phenomena, including quantum Hall phase, emergent ferromagnetism, and superconductivity. Although electron spin plays key roles in these phenomena, the fundamental understanding and application prospects of such emergent interfacial states have been largely impeded by the lack of purely spin-polarized 2DEG. In this paper, by first-principles calculations of the multiferroic superlattice GeTe/MnTe, we find the ferroelectric polarization of GeTe is concurrent with the half-metallic 2DEG at interfaces. Remarkably, the pure spin polarization of the 2DEG can be created and annihilated by polarizing and depolarizing themore »« less
