Popis: Epitaxial Cr metallizations grown on n-SrTiO3(001) by molecular beam epitaxy are shown to result in an ordered interface with Cr bound to O in the terminal TiO2 layer, no reduction of the SrTiO3, and a near-perfect Ohmic contact. Cr/n-SrTiO3(001) thus constitutes an ideal interface between a pure metal and wide gap oxide in which interface redox chemistry does not occur, and the Fermi level remains unpinned.
