contents Heterointerfaces have been pivotal in unveiling extraordinary interfacial properties and enabling multifunctional material platforms. Despite extensive research on all-oxide interfaces, heterointerfaces between different material classes, such as oxides and nitrides, remain underexplored. Here we present the fabrication of a high-quality Dirac metal antiperovskite Ni3InN, characterized by an extremely low temperature coefficient of resistivity, approximately 1.8*10^-8 Ω*cm/K, over a broad temperature range. Atomically sharp heterointerfaces between Ni3InN and SrVO3 were constructed, revealing intriguing interfacial phenomena. Leveraging layer-resolved scanning transmission electron microscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy, we identified pronounced charge transfer across the well-ordered interface. Remarkably, this interfacial electron transfer from Ni3InN to SrVO3 induces an insulating interfacial layer and an emergent magnetic moment within the Ni3InN layer, consistent with first-principles calculations. These findings pave the way for novel electronic and spintronic applications by enabling tunable interfacial properties in nitride/oxide systems.
