Spinel MgAl2O4 and family oxides are emerging barrier materials useful for magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs). We report large tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) ratios up to 429% at room temperature (RT) and 1,034% at 10 K in a…
Stochastic magnetic tunnel junctions (sMTJ) using low-barrier nanomagnets have shown promise as fast, energy-efficient, and scalable building blocks for probabilistic computing. Despite recent experimental and theoretical progress, sMTJs…

Magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) have been widely applied in spintronic devices for efficient spin detection through the imbalance of spin polarization at the Fermi level. The van der Waals (vdW) nature of two-dimensional (2D) magnets with…
A triple-heterojunction (3HJ) design is employed to improve p-type InAs/GaSb heterojunction (HJ) tunnel FETs. The added two HJs (AlInAsSb/InAs in the source and GaSb/AlSb in the channel) significantly shorten the tunnel distance and create…
