Currently, the formation of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the TiO2/LaO-terminated interface of LaAlO3/SrTiO3 (LAO/STO) is well understood. The LAO critical thickness of four unit cells needed to measure the 2DEG was established. Here, we show how 2DEG can be tuned externally by changing electronic balance at the LAO(001) surface or, alternatively, at the intrinsically hole-doped AlO2/SrO interface of LAO/STO heterostructures. The effects of liquid gating at LAO(001) and imperfect AlO2/SrO were simulated in the framework of the first-principles Green function method within a coherent potential approximation. We evaluated the Fermi surface cross sections and effective masses of the 2DEG carriers, which were computed upon the degree of external chemical disorder. These findings may be extremely important for applications of 2DEG.
