A 4‐Fold‐Symmetry Hexagonal Ruthenium for Magnetic Heterostructures Exhibiting Enhanced Perpendicular Magnetic Anisotropy and Tunnel Magnetoresistance
Source abstract
Abstract
A 4-fold-symmetry hexagonal Ru emerging in epitaxial MgO/Ru/Co2 FeAl/MgO heterostructures is reported, in which an approximately Ru(022¯3) growth attributes to the lattice matching between MgO, Ru, and Co2 FeAl. Perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of the Co2 FeAl/MgO interface is substantially enhanced. The magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) incorporating this structure give rise to the largest tunnel magnetoresistance for perpendicular MTJs using low damping Heusler alloys.
