Improved conduction and orbital polarization in ultrathin LaNiO3 sublayer by modulating octahedron rotation in LaNiO3/CaTiO3 superlattices

Abstract Artificial oxide heterostructures have provided promising platforms for the exploration of emergent quantum phases with extraordinary properties. Here, we demonstrate an approach to stabilize a distinct oxygen octahedron rotation (OOR) characterized by $${a}^{-}{a}^{-}{c}^{+}$$ a − a − c +...
