We consider a new type of magnetic tunnel junction, which consists of two ferromagnetic tunnel barriers acting as spin filters (SFs), separated by a nonmagnetic metal (NM) layer. Using the transfer matrix method and the free-electron…

Magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) with bcc(001)-type structures such as Fe(001)/MgO(001)/Fe(001), have been widely used as the core of various spintronic devices such as magnetoresistive memories; however, the limited material selection of…

Electric currents carrying a net spin polarization are widely used in spintronics, whereas globally spin-neutral currents are expected to play no role in spin-dependent phenomena. Here we show that, in contrast to this common expectation,…
