Hidden lattice instabilities as origin of the conductive interface between insulating LaAlO3 and SrTiO3
The metallic interface between insulating LaAlO3 and SrTiO3 opens up the field of oxide electronics. With more than a decade of researches on this heterostructure, the origin of the interfacial conductivity, however, remains unsettled. Here we resolve this long-standing puzzle by atomic-scale observ...
