Abstract:
A material stack of a synthetic anti-ferromagnetic (SAF) reference layer of a perpendicular magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) may include an SAF coupling layer. The material stack may also include and an amorphous spacer layer on the SAF coupling layer. The amorphous spacer layer may include an alloy or multilayer of tantalum and cobalt or tantalum and iron or cobalt and iron and tantalum. The amorphous spacer layer may also include a treated surface of the SAF coupling layer.
