Surface Energetics of Alkaline-Earth Metal Oxides: Trends in Stability and Adsorption of Small Molecules

Michal Bajdich, Jens K. Nørskov, Aleksandra Vojvodic

We present a systematic theoretical investigation of the surface properties, stability and reactivity, of rock-salt type alkaline-earth metal oxides including MgO, CaO, SrO, and Ba…

Quantum longitudinal and Hall transport at the LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interface at low electron densities

Yanwu Xie, Christopher Bell, Minu Kim +3

We examined the magneto-transport behavior of electrons confined at the conducting LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interface in the low sheet carrier density regime. We observed well resolved Shubni…
