New Routes for Structural, Orbital, and Magnetic Control in Isovalent Oxide Superlattices within 6.1.1 Strong Correlations and Novel Quantum Phases of Matter
Abstract
The proposed research seeks to control structural, orbital and magnetic order in isovalent oxide superlattices. The specific objectives arc to (i) demonstrate "delta-doping" of orbital polarizations and octahedral rotations, (ii) stabilization of complex orbital order in three dimensions, and (iii) study the coupling between spin texturing and magnetotransport. Various superlattices of manganites and ferrites wi ll be grown by molecular beam epitaxy. Samples will subsequently be characterized by x-ray diffraction and reflectivity. The resistivity and magnetotransport of the samples as a function of temperature will also be conducted.
