Enhanced two dimensional electron gas charge densities at III-III/I-V   oxide heterostructure interfaces
  In this paper, density functional theory calculations are used to explore the electronic and atomic reconstruction at interfaces between III-III/I-V oxides. In particular, at these interfaces, two dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) with twice the interfacial charge densities of the prototypical LaTiO3/SrTiO3 heterostructure are observed. Furthermore, a significant decrease in the band effective masses of the conduction electrons is shown, suggesting that possible enhancements in electron mobilities may be achievable. These findings represent a framework for chemically modulating 2DEGs, thereby providing a platform through which the underlying physics of electron confinement can be explored with implications for modern microelectronic devices.
