Abstract

We propose a theoretical model based on the concept of multiferroic tunnel junction. The model is capable of producing eight different logic states by combining the spin-filter effect and the screening of polarization charges between two electrodes through a general spintronic tunneling. The dependence of the conductance ratio with very large magnitude on electric polarization, exchange splitting, barrier width, and bias voltage is investigated. The result may provide some insights into the realization of octal data storage (namely, the eight different logic states are used as octal code), which could lead to the tremendous increase of memory storage density.
