abstract = {At the interface of two dissimilar entities, something novel can emerge. This idea has driven a vast amount of fruitful work on semiconductor interfaces, and given us the digi- tal revolution. In the past decade, remarkable progress has been made in the synthesis and understanding of interfaces between oxides, opening up new avenues to explore fundamen- tal emergent physics at the interface, as well as to provide viable candidates to augment or even surpass the performance of conventional semiconductor electronics. The two- dimensional conducting interface in the (001) LaAlO3/SrTiO3 system is the most studied example of oxide interfaces, showing a wide range of coexisting and competing phenomena such as superconductivity, superconductor-insulator transitions, magnetism, and spin- orbit interactions. The (111) oriented LaAlO3/SrTiO3 system has been recently found to have a few surprises of its own, with intriguing anisotropies in many transport properties along different in-plane crystal directions. This thesis presents the first results on a different SrTiO3 based system: the conducting interface between (La0.3Sr0.7)(Al0.65Ta0.35) and (111) oriented SrTiO3, which has a smaller strain as compared to the LaAlO3/SrTiO3 system. Electrical transport measurements at cryogenic temperatures reveal that no systematic anisotropy is seen in transport properties, unlike in the case of (111) oriented LaAlO3/SrTiO3. High-field magnetotransport shows the presence of high-mobility carri- ers at high electron densities, and exhibits multiband behavior, tunable in situ using an electrical back-gate, similar to the LaAlO3/SrTiO3 system. The data allow us to draw specific conclusions about band ordering in the system, and point to possible differences between the band ordering in (111) (La0.3Sr0.7)(Al0.65Ta0.35)O3/SrTiO3 and (001) as well as (111) oriented LaAlO3/SrTiO3. Low-field magnetotransport reveals that a strong spin- orbit interaction emerges in the regime of low electron density, when the high-mobility carriers are depleted from the system, a trend which is opposite to that observed in (001) oriented LaAlO3/SrTiO3. The most striking feature is that at millikelvin temperatures, in the regime of low electron densities, concomitant with the development of strong spin- orbit interaction, magnetic order emerges.},

abstract = {We have measured the low temperature resistivity of AuFe wires in the dilute magnetic impurity limit as a function of wire width, temperature, and magnetic field. When the width dependence of the electron-electron interaction contribution to the resistivity is taken into account, the temperature dependence of the remaining Kondo contribution to the resistivity of all samples with the same impurity concentration is identical. Similar behavior is observed for the magnetic field dependent resistivity. Thus, the Kondo contribution to the resistivity is independent of width down to 38 nm, much smaller than the Kondo length $textbackslashensuremathtextbackslashxi_textbackslashmathitK$=textbackslashensuremathtextbackslashElzxh$textbackslashmathitv_textbackslashmathitF$/$textbackslashmathitk_textbackslashmathitB$$textbackslashmathitŦ_textbackslashmathitK$textbackslashensuremathtextbackslashapproxeq10 textbackslashensuremathtextbackslashmum.},
