Recently, we found novel routes to experimentally control the phase diagram in the perovskite bismuthate BaBiO3 (BBO), the parent compound of several high-Tc oxide superconductors. Numerous experimental and theoretical studies have sought to gain insight into the mechanisms that control the physics of these bismuthates [1,2]; to date, however, only limited progress has been made in hole-doped bulk samples. Here, we present our recent progress on exploration of the novel phase diagram of BBO via thickness and doping controls. We revealed that a minimum length scale to sustain a charge density wave order in BBO films by thickness control [3]. Furthermore, the electronic and structural properties of BBO were strongly dependent on oxygen deficiency, disclosed by the combination of in situ spectroscopic techniques and first-principles calculations. Our approaches introduce independent control parameters to explore the BBO phase diagram, and may also provide a useful guideline to study the recently predicted topological phases in electron-doped bismuthates [4].
