The giant magnetoresistance (GMR) effect in FeMn/NiCoFe/Cu/NiCoFe spin valve prepared by dc opposed target magnetron sputtering is reported. The spin valve thin films are characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM) and magnetoresistance ratio measurements. All measurements are performed in room temperature. The inserted 45 mm thickness FeMn layer to the NiCoFe/Cu/NiCoFe system can increase the GMR ratio up to 32.5%. The coercive field to be increased is compared with different FeMn layer thickness. Furthermore, the coercive field (Hc) decreases with increasing FeMn layer thickness. Magnitude of coercive field is 0.1 T, 0.09 T and 0.08 T for FeMn layer thickness is 30 nm, 45 nm and 60 nm, respectively. The FeMn layer is used to lock the magnetization in the ferromagnetic layer through the exchange anisotropy. This paper will describe the development of a GMR spin valve and its magnetic properties.

Graphene and hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) have shown fascinating features in spintronics due to their metallic and tunneling behaviors, respectively. In this work, we report for the first time room temperature spin valve effect in NiFe/Gr–hBN/Co configuration.

ABSTRACTThis paper describes first steps in preparation of an organic spin valve based on a perylene derivative (PTCTE) sandwiched between magnetite (Fe3O4) and cobalt (Co) ferromagnetic electrodes. MgO(001)/Fe3O4/PTCTE (450 nm)/Co devices were prepared with different Co soft deposition methods: off-axis dc-sputtering or Joule evaporation. Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM) studies of the Fe3O4/PTCTE/Co stacks evidence spin valve behavior with magnetically uncoupled electrodes. These results are correlated with a morphological study by atomic force microscopy (AFM) of each layer and tunneling AFM (TUNA) for the investigation of inhomogeneity of current distribution in the devices. Finally, macroscopic I-V characteristics performed on the same devices will be presented and compared with TUNA results.
