Abstract
Recently, high-temperature superconductivity (HTSC) is found in the La3Ni2O7/SrLaAlO4 ultrathin film with critical temperature Tc above the McMillan limit at ambient pressure (AP). It is eager to enhance Tc of La3Ni2O7 at AP. We propose that a perpendicular electric field strongly enhances Tc in the single-bilayer film of La3Ni2O7 at AP. Under electric field, the layer with lower potential energy will accept electrons flowing from the other layer to fill in the Ni-

orbitals in this layer, the interlayer s-wave pairing is suppressed, but the intralayer d-wave pairing in this layer is strongly enhanced. We numerically verify this idea and yield that an imposed voltage of about 0.1 ~ 0.2 volt between layers is enough to realize liquid-nitrogen-temperature HTSC in this single bilayer at AP. Our results appeal for experimental verification.
