Abstract
Oxygen concentration critically determines the physical properties of transition metal oxides. In this work, we realized a subtle modulation of the oxygen concentration in heterostructures composed of perovskite SrTiO3 (STO) and brownmillerite SrCoO2.5 (BM-SCO) by deliberately promoting oxygen migration from the oxygen reservoir to BM-SCO with the assistance of STO capping. A small increase in the oxygen concentration was demonstrated to exclusively change the interorbital transition that is mostly related to the O 2p states in BM-SCO. The independent tuning of interorbital transition facilitates a wavelength-selective control of visible-light absorption. This results in a rich colorful appearance of the heterostructures, which depends on the thickness of the STO capping layer. The capping-assisted oxygen migration is expected to facilitate the designing and tailoring of emergent phenomena in oxygen-deficient oxides, even in the absence of a full topotactic phase transition.
