Conducting LaAlO3/SrTiO3 heterointerfaces on atomically-flat substrates prepared by deionized-water

We have investigated how the recently-developed water-leaching method for atomically-flat SrTiO3 (STO) substrates affects the transport properties of LaAlO3 (LAO) and STO heterointerfaces. Using pulsed laser deposition at identical growth conditions, we have synthesized epitaxial LAO thin-films on t...
