We fabricate ferromagnetic nanowires with constrictions whose cross section can be reduced gradually from 100 nm to the atomic scale and eventually to the tunneling regime by means of electromigration. These devices are mechanically stable…

We created epitaxial magnetic tunnel junctions of FeCo/MgO/EuS on MgO buffered Si (100). Tunnel magnetoresistance reached up to 64% at 4.2 K. An unexpected fast drop of magnetoresistance was recorded for MgO thickness above 1 nm, which is…

Antiferromagnetic (AF) spintronics is merit on ultra-high operator speed and stability in the presence of magnetic field. To fully use the merit, the device should be pure rather than hybrid with ferromagnet or ferrimagnet. For the…
