For the LaAlO3/SrRuO3 (LAO/SRO) system a similar electronic reconstruction to that of LaAlO3/SrTiO3 (LAO/STO) is expected, and charge is thought to be accumulated at the very interface giving rise to strong inversion-symmetry breaking and causing a topological transition of the electronic bands [1]. We show that the LAO capping drives the SRO, which turns insulating below 8 unit cells (uc) without capping, (deeper) into the metallic regime. Furthermore, we find not only signatures of an anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in 4 uc SRO films capped with LAO, but also an inversion of the sign of the AHE, when the 4uc SRO is replaced by metallic 10 uc of SRO indicating the topological phase transition. Moreover, we correlate these findings with hard and soft x-ray photoemission spectroscopy data, that show changes in the ruthenium electronic states, and discuss these changes in terms of correlated electrons.
