Giant magnetoresistance in perpendicularly magnetized synthetic antiferromagnetic coupling with Ir spacer

Perpendicularly magnetized magnetic tunnel junction (p-MTJ) is a key element for developing high-density spin-transfer torque switching magnetoresistive random access memory. Recently, a large exchange coupling (IEC) in the synthetic antiferromagnetic reference layer with Ir interlayer was observed...
