Understanding tunneling magnetoresistance during thermal annealing in MgO-based junctions with CoFeB electrodes

The competition between the interface crystallization and diffusion processes, their influence on the onset of symmetry-filtering coherent tunneling of Δ1 band electrons in the MgO-based magnetic tunnel junctions is investigated. Systematic study of the transport and magnetoresistance during thermal...
