Abstract
In semiconducting materials, electrostatic gating and light illumination are widely used stimuli to tune the electronic properties of the system. Here, we show a significant enhancement of photoresponse at the conducting interface of LaVO3–SrTiO3 under the simultaneous application of light and negative gate bias voltage, in comparison to their individual application. On the other hand, the illuminated LaVO3-SrTiO3 interface does not show any enhancement, when a positive gate bias voltage is applied. Our x-ray diffractometer, Raman spectroscopy and photoemission measurements show that unlike the LaAlO3–SrTiO3 interface, migration of oxygen vacancies may not be the prime mechanism for the enhanced photoresponse. Rather, we suggest that the photoresponse of our system is intrinsic and this intrinsic mechanism is a complex interplay between band filling, electric field at the interface and modification of conducting channel width.
