Fe concentration dependence of tunneling magnetoresistance in magnetic tunnel junctions using group-IV ferromagnetic semiconductor GeFe

Group-IV-based ferromagnetic semiconductor Ge1−xFex (GeFe) is one of the most promising materials for spin injection/detection in Si and Ge. In this paper, we demonstrate a systematic study of tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) in magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) composed of Fe/MgO/Ge1−xFex with vari...
