The Hall resistance as a function out-of-plane magnetic field, RH(B), for LAO/STO samples S4, S3, S2, and S1 with rLa/Al = 0.91 (a, e), 0.90 (b, f), 0.88 (c, g), and 0.84 (d, h) respectively. This is within the low gate voltage (VG) region of the phase diagram with linear dependence in RH(B) (a–d), and at 50V where RH(B) display nonlinear dependence (e–h). The black-dashed line indicates a linear fit of RH(B). The black solid line is a fit of the two-band model (eq 1 presented in methods). i-l The evolution of carrier density as a function of VG extracted from the linear fit of RH(B) for B < 0.5T (open circle) and B > 4T (solid circle). The shaded area indicates the region of VG where RH(B) is nonlinear i.e. two bands regime. In the shaded region, n(B < 0.5T) vs. VG curve is not representing the true value of carrier density due to nonlinear RH(B), whereas, n(B > 4T) is nearly equal to total carrier density \({n}_{T}={n}_{{d}_{xy}}+{n}_{{d}_{xz/yz}}\). Two arrows are the selection of gate voltage for which RH(B) curves are shown. All measurements were performed at T = 2K.
