    摘要: Disclosed is a ferromagnetic tunnel junction structure which is characterized by having a tunnel barrier layer that comprises a non-magnetic material having a spinel structure. The ferromagnetic tunnel junction structure is also characterized in that the non-magnetic material is substantially MgAl2O4. The ferromagnetic tunnel junction is also characterized in that at least one of the ferromagnetic layers comprises a Co-based full Heusler alloy having an L21 or B2 structure. The ferromagnetic tunnel junction structure is also characterized in that the Co-based full Heusler alloy comprises a substance represented by the following formula: Co2FeAlxSi1-x (0≦x≦1). Also disclosed are a magnetoresistive element and a spintronics device, each of which utilizes the ferromagnetic tunnel junction structure and can achieve a high TMR value, that cannot be achieved by employing conventional tunnel barrier layers other than a MgO barrier.

    摘要: For the present ferromagnetic tunnel junction structure, employed is a means characterized by using an MgO barrier and using a Co2FeAl full-Heusler alloy for any of the ferromagnetic layers therein. The ferromagnetic tunnel junction structure is characterized in that Co2FeAl includes especially a B2 structure and one of the ferromagnetic layers is formed on a Cr buffer layer. The magnetoresistive element is characterized in that the ferromagnetic tunnel junction structure therein is any of the above-mentioned ferromagnetic tunnel junction structure. Accordingly, a large TMR, especially a TMR over 100% at room temperature can be attained, using Co2FeAl having a smallest α though not a half-metal.
