Perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of (001)-textured poly-crystalline MnAlGe films

Cu2Sb-type intermetallic compound, MnAlGe, is known to exhibit uniaxial magnetocrystalline anisotropy and relatively small saturation magnetization, which is suitable for spintronic application, e.g. spin-transfer phenomena requiring small critical current density. Ge-concentration dependence of the...
