Recently, oxide heterostructures attract attention due to novel physical properties at their interfaces. A case in point is the 1/1 heterostructure LaO-NiO2-LaO-AlO2 (LAO/LNO/LAO). For that it has recently been predicted that by substrate-imposed strain one of the two conductions bands can be pushed up such that it is almost completely depleted. Inclusion of electron-electron interactions would shift this band further up, inducing a single Fermi surface (FS) sheet which resembles that of the high-Tc superconducting cuprates with prospects to carry high-temperature superconductivity as well [1].
While experimentally it is not yet possible to fabricate the 1/1 heterostructure with the required precision, we analyzed multilayers with layer thicknesses between 2uc and 4uc by means of hard-x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy to access the buried LNO layers. Interestingly, from Ni core-level spectra we have found evidence for a charge-transfer in the 2uc/2uc sample to Ni which might have an important impact on the FS topology and hence the idea to artificially design a cuprate-like FS.
