Abstract
The first principle comparative study of a novel single Al sheet embedded MgO and pure MgO barrier having Fe electrodes magnetic tunnel junction has been presented. Al embedded MgO is reported to provide enhanced spin polarised tunnelling current due to increase of spin-polarized density of states at Fermi energy in the barrier region. This novel MTJ provides a current density and resistance area (RA) product of 94.497×107A/cm2 and 0.105 Ω−μm2 respectively. With such a low RA product; it allows higher deriving current due to which switching time of magnetization reversal reduces without inducing barrier related breakdowns in non-volatile magnetic random access memories. The low RA product and high current density of the proposed MTJ may have possible applications in integration with existing MOS circuits.
