Polaronic nature of charge carriers at the LAO/STO interface — •Vladimir N. Strocov1, Claudia Cancellieri2, Adrian Husanu1, Ulrich Ashauer3, and Andrey Mishchenko41Swiss Light Source, Paul Scherrer Insitute, Switzerland — 2EMPA, Switzerland — 3University of Bern, Switzerland — 4RIKEN Center for Emergent Matter Science, Japan

2D electron system emergent at the paradigm buried oxide interface LaAlO3/SrTiO3 (LAO/STO) is explored with soft-X-ray ARPES, which combines resolution in electron energy and momentum with enhanced probing depth and chemical specificity [1]. Accentuated with resonant photoexcitation of the interface Ti3+ ions, ARPES response of the interface charge carriers resolves the manifold energy band structure of t2g-derived subbands formed in the interface quantum well. The temperature dependent peak-dip-hump spectral lineshape manifests polaronic nature of the interface electrons, where the breathing-mode LO3 phonon at 118 meV limits low-temperature mobility of the interface charge carriers, and the polar TO1 one, changing its frequency from  18 to 14 meV across the antiferrodistortive phase transition, causes a dramatic mobility drop with temperature [2]. Doping with oxygen vacancies, affecting electron-phonon coupling, opens ways to tune the interfacial mobility at oxide interfaces in view of their potential device applications.
