It has been a goal in applied physics to construct devices in which superconductivity can be switched on and off with an electric field. Recently, it was shown that the conducting interface between LaAlO3 and SrTiO3 (both in bulk form are insulators) can produce a two-dimensional superconducting condensate. This paper now uses the electric field effect, which tunes the charge carrier density, to explore the phase diagram of the system.
