Electrical Control

One of the motivations for multiferroics research is to find an energy-efficient solution to spintronic applications, such as the solely electrical control of magnetic tunnel junctions. Here, we integrate spintronics and multiferroics by depositing MgO-based magnetic tunnel junctions on ferroelectric substrate. We fabricate two pairs of electrodes on the ferroelectric substrate to generate localized strain by applying voltage. This voltage-generated localized strain has the ability to modify the magnetic anisotropy of the free layer effectively. By sequentially applying voltages to these two pairs of electrodes, we successively and unidirectionally rotate the magnetization of the free layer in the magnetic tunnel junctions to complete reversible 180° magnetization switching. Thus, we accomplish a giant nonvolatile solely electrical switchable high/low resistance in magnetic tunnel junctions at room temperature without the aid of a magnetic field. Our results are important for exploring voltage control of magnetism and low-power spintronic devices.

AbstractSpin-polarized currents can be generated by spin-dependent diffusive scattering in magnetic thin-film structures or by spin-dependent tunneling across ultrathin dielectrics sandwiched between magnetic electrodes.By manipulating the magnetic moments of the magnetic components of these spintronic materials, their resistance can be significantly changed, allowing the development of highly sensitive magnetic-field detectors or advanced magnetic memory storage elements.Whereas the magneto-resistance of useful devices based on spin-dependent diffusive scattering has hardly changed since its discovery nearly two decades ago, in the past five years there has been a remarkably rapid development in both the basic understanding of spin-dependent tunneling and the magnitude of useful tunnel magnetoresistance values.In particular, it is now evident that the magnitude of the spin polarization of tunneling currents in magnetic tunnel junctions not only is related to the spin-dependent electronic structure of the ferromagnetic electrodes but also is considerably influenced by the properties of the tunnel barrier and its interfaces with the magnetic electrodes.Whereas the maximum tunnel magnetoresistance of devices using amorphous alumina tunnel barriers and 3d transition-metal alloy ferromagnetic electrodes is about 70% at room temperature, using crystalline MgO tunnel barriers in otherwise the same structures gives tunnel magnetoresistance values of more than 350% at room temperature.
