Abstract
Tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) of 21% is observed at low temperature in hybrid magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) composed of a magnetic semiconductor (Zn,Cr)Te and Co electrodes separated by an alumina barrier. The TMR is observed up to 250K, which is a considerable improvement over previous work on MTJs with semiconductor electrodes. The temperature and bias dependence of the TMR are consistent with a transport model involving spin-polarized tunneling and spin-independent hopping through impurity states.
