Strongly charged head-to-head domain walls that are purposely engineered along the [110] crystallographic orientation into ferroelectric BaTiO3 single crystals have been proposed as intrinsically nanoscaled two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) because of their significant conductivity. Here, we quantify these 2DEG properties through dedicated Hall transport measurements in van der Pauw 4-point geometry, finding the electron mobility to reach around 400 cm2 (V s)−1, while the two-dimensional charge density amounts to 7 × 103 cm–2. We underline the necessity to take into account the thermal and geometrical misalignment offset voltages by evaluating the Hall resistance under magnetic field sweeps, otherwise, errors of several hundred percent in the derived transport parameters can occur.
