Cover Story: Over the past decade, researchers have made significant progress in studying buried hetero-structures by using Second Harmonic Generation. In particular, they have focused on the interface between SrTiO3 and LaAlO3, two wide-gap perovskite insulators that exhibit the remarkable appearance of a perfectly two-dimensional electron gas formed at their interface. The discovery has triggered enormous scientific interest due to the limitless possible technological applications of such an effect. Optical Second Harmonic Generation has been found to be especially suitable for investigating these structures. We would like to draw the reader’s attention to this experimental tool which has not fully developed its whole spectrum of capabilities yet, mainly because it is not well known outside the community of non-linear optics scientists.
