abstract = {Electron mobility is one of the most-debated key attributes
of low-dimensional electron systems emerging at complex
oxide heterointerfaces. However, a common understanding of
how electron mobility can be optimized in these systems has
not been achieved so far. Here, we discuss a novel approach
for achieving a systematic increase in electron mobility in
polar/nonpolar perovskite interfaces by suppressing the
thermodynamically required defect formation at the
nanoscale. We discuss the transport properties of electron
gases established at interfaces between SrTiO3 and various
polar perovskites [LaAlO3, NdGaO3, and (La,Sr)(Al,Ta)O3],
allowing for the individual variation of epitaxial strain
and charge transfer among these epitaxial interfaces. As we
show, the reduced charge transfer at (La,Sr)(Al,Ta)O3/SrTiO3
interfaces yields a systematic increase in electron
mobility, while the reduced epitaxial strain has only minor
impact. As thermodynamic continuum simulations suggest, the
charge transfer across these interfaces affects both the
spatial distribution of electrons and the background
distribution of ionic defects, acting as major scatter
centers within the potential well. Easing charge transfer in
(La,Sr)(Al,Ta)O3/SrTiO3 yields an enlarged spatial
separation of mobile charge carriers and scattering centers,
as well as a reduced driving force for the formation of
ionic defects at the nanoscale. Our results suggest a
general recipe for achieving electron enhancements at oxide
heterostructure interfaces and provide new perspectives for
atomistic understanding of electron scattering in these
systems.},
