Creating a heterostructure by combining two magnetically and structurally distinct ruthenium oxides is a crucial approach for investigating their emergent magnetic states and interactions. Previously, research has predominantly concentrated on the intrinsic properties of the ferromagnet SrRuO and recently discovered altermagnet RuO solely. Here, the study engineers an ultrasharp sublattice-matched heterointerface using pseudo-cubic SrRuO and rutile RuO, conducting an in-depth analysis of their spin interactions.

By applying electric field-controlled ionic liquid gating (ILG) to stoichiometry LaSrCoO thin films, the doping of protons (H) has been achieved for the first time. Furthermore, a hitherto-unreported ferromagnetic insulating phase with a remarkably high up to 180 K has been observed which can be attributed to the doping of H and the formation of oxygen vacancies (V).
