Magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) are crucial components in high-performance spintronic devices. Traditional MTJs rely on ferromagnetic (FM) materials but significant improvements in speed and packing density could be enabled by exploiting…
Results of first-principles calculations of the Fe/GaAs/Ag(001) epitaxial tunnel junctions reveal that hybridization of interface resonances formed at both interfaces can enhance the tunnelling anisotropic magnetoresistance (TAMR) of the…
Different mechanisms of spin-dependent tunneling are analyzed with respect to their role in tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR). Microscopic calculation within a realistic model shows that direct tunneling in iron group systems leads to about a…
Temperature dependence of the tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) was calculated in range of the quantum-ballistic model in the magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) with embedded nanoparticles (NPs). The electron tunnel transport through NP was…
AlN and ZnO, two wide band-gap semiconductors extensively used in the display industry, crystallise in the wurtzite structure, which can favour the formation of epitaxial interfaces to close-packed common ferromagnets. Here we explore these…
We propose a theoretical model for an all-Heusler magnetic tunnel junction that uses two Heusler compounds: Fe$_2$CrSi and Fe$_2$TiSi, both of which can be experimentally synthesized. Fe$_2$CrSi is a half-metallic ferromagnet, making it a…

The tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) effect observed in magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) is commonly used in many spintronic applications because the effect can easily convert from local magnetic states to electric signals in a wide range of…
Magnetic tunnel junctions comprising of an insulator sandwiched between two ferromagnetic films are the simplest spintronic devices. Theoretically, these can be modeled by a metallic Hamiltonian in both the lattice and the continuum with an…
Coherent spin-dependent electronic transport is investigated in a molecular junction made of polymeric chain attached to ferromagnetic electrodes (Ni and Co, respectively). Molecular system is described by a simple Huckel model, while the…
