A research group led by Professor Yang Xiaoping has discovered a tunable two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the heterointerface of 5d iridates, specifically in SrIrO3/LaTiO3 superlattices. Their study, published in ACS Applied Electronic Materials, demonstrates how charge transfer between layers can be controlled by manipulating doping and layer thickness, leading to various electronic states. This breakthrough offers insights into developing novel nanoscale devices and exploring unconventional superconductivity in iridates, marking significant progress in the field of condensed matter physics.
