Abstract

The structural and electronic properties of heterostructures based on transition metal oxides containing strongly correlated electrons are compared. The investigated structures are LaAlO3/SrTiO3 (LAO/STO), LaAlO3/BaTiO3 (LAO/BTO), and BaTiO3/SrTiO3 (BTO/STO). The role of structural relaxation in the formation of a two-dimensional electron gas at the interface of two dielectrics is revealed. The contribution from different orbitals and atoms to conductivity is analyzed, along with the correlation between structural distortions induced by the dipole moment in an LAO layer and conductivity.
