Proximity-Induced Novel Ferromagnetism Accompanied with Resolute Metallicity in NdNiO3 Heterostructure

Joël Mesot, Zoran Ristic, Marco Caputo, Anna Zakharova, Zheng Wang

Employing X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD), angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), and momentum-resolved density fluctuation (MRDF) theory, the magnetic and electronic properties of ultrathin NdNiO3 (NNO) film in proximity to ferromagne ...

Observation of a two-dimensional electron gas at CaTiO3 film surfaces

Zoran Ristic, Stefan Peter Muff, Jan Hugo Dil, Mauro Fanciulli, Andrew Patton Weber, Zheng Wang

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 CaTiO3, grown by pulsed l ...

Tuning the metal-insulator transition in NdNiO3 heterostructures via Fermi surface instability and spin fluctuations

Joël Mesot, Elia Razzoli, Zoran Ristic

We employed in situ pulsed laser deposition (PLD) and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) to investigate the mechanism of the metal-insulator transition (MIT) in NdNiO3 (NNO) thin films, grown on NdGaO3(110) and LaAlO3(100) substrates. In the ...

Transport properties of a quasi-two-dimensional electron system formed in LaAlO3/EuTiO3/SrTiO3 heterostructures

Stefano Rusponi, Zoran Ristic

We study the structural, magnetic, and transport properties of LaAlO3/EuTiO3/SrTiO3 heterostructures grown by pulsed laser deposition. The samples are characterized in situ by electron diffraction and scanning probe microscopy and ex situ by transport meas ...

Photodoping and in-gap interface states across the metal-insulator transition in LaAlO3/SrTiO3 heterostructures

Zoran Ristic

By using scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy we show that the interface between LaAlO3 and SrTiO3 band insulators is characterized by in-gap interface states. These features were observed in insulating as well as conducting LaAlO3/SrTiO3 bilayers. T ...

Observation of a two-dimensional electron gas at the surface of annealed SrTiO3 single crystals by scanning tunneling spectroscopy

Zoran Ristic

An extensive surface characterization of hydrofluoric acid (HF) etched and annealed SrTiO3 single crystals, vacuum-annealed below 300 degrees C, reveals the formation of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG). A joint scanning tunneling spectroscopy and low ...

In situ investigation of the early stage of TiO2 epitaxy on (001) SrTiO3

Zoran Ristic

We report on a systematic study of the growth of epitaxial TiO2 films deposited by pulsed laser deposition on Ti-terminated SrTiO3 (001) single crystals. By using in situ reflection high energy electron diffraction, low energy electron diffraction, x-ray p ...
