Effect of capping layer material on thermal tolerance of magnetic tunnel junctions with MgO/CoFeB-based free layer/MgO/capping layers
We investigate the effect of the capping layer on the thermal tolerance of magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) with free layer of MgO/CoFeB/spacer layer/CoFeB/MgO/capping layers (CoFeB, Ru, or Ta). We observe the largest perpendicular magnetic anisotropy energy density for the free layer with CoFeB cap...
