Funded Activity Summary

Transition Metal Oxide Interfaces: Novel Emerging Functionalities. The project aims to investigate transition metal oxide heterostructures, which offer tremendous opportunities for fundamental research and future technological applications because they combine quantum size effects with effects of strong electron correlations such as magnetic switching, multiferroic coupling or superconductivity. Recent advances in growth methods such as pulsed laser deposition enable layer-by-layer growth with atomic precision. The aim of this project is to combine complementary experimental methods (ie neutron scattering and optical spectroscopy), in order to gain a detailed insight into the magnetic and electronic properties of the heterostructures. This is designed to yield a deeper understanding of the underlying physics in order to help develop new materials for next-generation information technology.
