摘要:

使用低温导电尖端原子力显微镜的横截面几何形状,我们的特点是局部输运性质的金属电子气,形成在LaAlO 3和SrTiO 3之间的界面。在低温下,我们发现载流子不会从界面扩散,而是被限制在约10 nm内,就像在室温下一样。考虑到SrTiO 3的介电常数的大的温度和电场依赖性的模拟预测,对于大于~6 10^13 cm-2的片状载流子密度,限制超过几nm。我们讨论了多波段载波系统的实验和仿真结果。值得注意的是,从霍尔测量估计的费米波长约为16 nm,表明电子气处于二维的边缘。

英文摘要:

Using a low-temperature conductive-tip atomic force microscope in cross-section geometry we have characterized the local transport properties of the metallic electron gas that forms at the interface between LaAlO3 and SrTiO3. At low temperature, we find that the carriers do not spread away from the interface but are confined within ~10 nm, just like at room temperature. Simulations taking into account both the large temperature and electric-field dependence of the permittivity of SrTiO3 predict a confinement over a few nm for sheet carrier densities larger than ~6 10^13 cm-2. We discuss the experimental and simulations results in terms of a multi-band carrier system. Remarkably, the Fermi wavelength estimated from Hall measurements is ~16 nm, indicating that the electron gas in on the verge of two-dimensionality.
