In this paper we analyze different contributions to the magnetoresistance of magnetic tunneling junctions at low voltages. A substantial fraction of the resistance drop with voltage can be ascribed to variations of the density of states and…
Strength of the the symmetry spin filtering effect (as defined by the asymptotic behavior of the tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) at large barrier thicknesses induced by this effect) is studied for the Fe/MgO/Fe magnetic tunnel junctions…
We study spin-dependent transport through ferromagnet/normal-metal/ferromagnet double tunnel junctions in the mesoscopic Coulomb blockade regime. A general transport equation allows us to calculate the conductance in the absence or presence…

We have studied tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) in junctions with 3d ferromagnetic electrodes. Previously we predicted that defects in the barrier would result in reduced effective polarization P of the impurity assisted current. This is…
Magnetic multilayer devices that exploit magnetoresistance are the backbone of magnetic sensing and data storage technologies. Here we report novel multiple-spin-filter magnetic tunnel junctions (sf-MTJs) based on van der Waals (vdW)…
Magnetite (Fe3O4) based tunnel junctions with turret/mesa structure have been investigated for different barrier materials (SrTiO3, NdGaO3, MgO, SiO2, and Al2O(3-x)). Junctions with a Ni counter electrode and an aluminium oxide barrier…
We investigated the relationship between the tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) ratio and the electrode structure in MgO-barrier magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs). The TMR ratio in a MTJ with Co40Fe40B20 reference and free layers reached 355% at…
Multiferroic tunnel junctions (MFTJs) based on two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals heterostructures with sharp and clean interfaces at the atomic scale are crucial for applications in nanoscale multi-resistive logic memory devices. The…
We present a theory for resonance-tunneling magnetoresistance (MR) in Ferromagnetic-Insulator-Nonmagnetic junctions. The theory sheds light on many of the recent electrical spin injection experiments, suggesting that this MR effect rather…
We investigate the tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) effect using the lattice models which describe the magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJ). First, taking a conventional ferromagnetic MTJ as an example, we show that the product of the local…
Magnetic tunnel junctions with wide band gap semiconductor ZnTe barrier were fabricated. A very low barrier height and sizable magnetoresistance were observed in the Fe/ZnTe/Fe junctions at room temperature. The nonlinear I-V characteristic…
Antiferromagnetic tunnel junctions (AFMTJs) can exhibit large tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR), making them promising candidates for ultrafast and field-robust spintronic devices. Here, we elucidate the role of band symmetry in governing…
GaMnAs-based magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) devices are characterized by in-plane and perpendicular-toplane magnetotransport at low temperatures. Perpendicular-to-plane transport reveals the typical tunneling magnetotransport (TMR) signal.…
The progress in exploiting new electronic materials and devices has been a major driving force in solid-state physics. As a new state of matter, a Weyl semimetal (WSM), particularly a type-II WSM, hosts Weyl fermions as emergent…
We have studied the Junction Magnetoresistance (JMR) and the Differential junction magnetoresistance (DJMR) for double tunnel junctions with magnetic metals in the Coulomb Blockade regime. Spikes are seen in both the JMR and the DJMR vs.…
