Abstract

We studied MgO barrier magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) comprising perpendicularly magnetized MnGa and FeCoB electrodes. In those perpendicular (p-) MTJs, we utilized thin metastable bcc CoMn alloys as an interlayer between MnGa and MgO to enhance the tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) effect. Moreover, we investigated the effect of a thin Mg interlayer between MnGa and CoMn. Owing to the interlayer engineering, we achieved a TMR ratio over 100%, the highest value observed for p-MTJs with a tetragonal MnGa electrode. Our study contributes to the further development of spintronic devices using p-MTJs with various Mn-based tetragonal alloy electrodes.
