Enhancement of tunneling magnetoresistance through a magnetic barrier

Creators

Description

Magnetoresistance of a spin-filter junction is theoretically studied and a large polarization of the tunneling current is produced from spin-dependent barrier. Two kinds of spin-filter junctions are proposed and their magnetoresistance ratios are much larger than that of the conventional spin polarized tunneling junction at appropriate conditions
