氧化物异质界面上的准二维超导*
冉峰 梁艳 张坚地 †
由于对称性破缺、晶格失配、电荷转移和空间限域等多自由度的协同关联作用, 氧化物异质界面演生出
许多与相应体材料所不同的物理性质, 其中氧化物界面超导由于蕴含丰富物理内涵吸引了广泛的关注. 近年
来, 得益于氧化物异质外延以及物性精准表征技术的迅猛发展, 研究人员已经在多种氧化物异质界面上观测
到了准二维的界面超导, 并研究了与其相关的许多新奇量子现象, 不仅推动了凝聚态物理研究的发展, 也为
界面超导走向实际应用奠定了重要基础. 本文主要介绍和讨论氧化物界面上的准二维超导, 以典型的 LaAlO3/
SrTiO3 界面准二维超导及 La2CuO4/La1.56Sr0.44CuO4 等铜氧化物界面超导为例, 总结分析氧化物界面超导中
新奇的物理现象, 并指出该研究体系目前存在的一些问题, 最后展望界面超导未来的发展方向.

Fig. 12. (BCO)2/(CCO)m superlattice superconductivity. (a) The number of CCO layers m in the (BCO)2/(CCO)m superlattice is
dependent on Tc. When the dotted line is m > 3, the effective carrier doping on a single CuO2 decreases, resulting in the decrease of
Tc[63]. (b) The temperature-resistance dependence of CCO-STO superlattice under different growth conditions. Dash line shows low
oxygen pressure growth; dot line shows low oxygen pressure growth, high oxygen pressure quenching; red line shows high oxygen
pressure growth, high oxygen pressure quenching. Illustration shows enlarged view of superconducting transition region[64]. (c) Tcm in
(CCO)n/(STO)2 superlattice depends on the thickness of CCO, where Tcm defined as the midpoint of the resistive transitions. Illus-
tration shows normalized resistance-temperature dependence of (CCO)n/(STO)2 superlattices with different CCO thicknesses[64].

Quasi-two-dimensional superconductivity
at oxide heterostructures*
Ran Feng Liang Yan Jiandi Zhang †
(Beijing National Laboratory of Condensed Matter, Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100190, China)
Abstract
Oxide interfaces manifest many fascinating phenomena with synergetic correlations among multiple degrees
of freedom, including the interplay of broken symmetry, lattice mismatch, charge transfer, spatial confinement.
In particular, the interface superconductivity in oxide heterostructure has attracted extensive attention due to
the rich underlying physical connotations. The interfaces not only provide alternative research platforms with
respect to the bulk material counterpart for exploring new superconductors and investigating superconducting
mechanisms, but also create new opportunities for applying superconductors to future electronic devices. In
recent years, owing to the rapid development of heteroepitaxial techniques and accurate characterization
methods, researchers have found quasi-two-dimensional interface superconductivity in various oxide
heterostructures and revealed numerous novel quantum phenomena associated with interface superconductivity,
which not only promotes the development of condensed matter physics, but also lays important foundation for
the practical application of interface superconductivity. In this brief review, we mainly focus on the quasi-two-
dimensional superconductivity at oxide interface. Taking the typical quasi-two-dimensional superconductivity at
the LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interface and copper oxides such as La2CuO4/La1.56Sr0.44CuO4 for example, we summarize
and examine some novel physical phenomena with interface superconductivity in complex oxide hetero-
structures. Then we address the related problems that remain to be solved, and finally we prospect the possible
future development of the interface superconductivity.
