摘要
Peltier cooling in submicron-sized current-perpendicular-to-plane metallic junctions (CPP-MJs) and enhancement of the Peltier coefficients are reported. The main goal of this study was to measure the temperature dependence of the Peltier coefficient. We fabricated submicron-sized CPP-MJs with Co/Au and Cr/Au interfaces. The obtained Peltier coefficients for the Co/Au and Cr/Au interfaces had opposite signs, and the magnitudes of both decreased as temperature decreased. A bridge type CPP-MJ having a Ti island connecting Co and Cr pillars was fabricated as a model of an electronic element. It also had a decrement of resistance with current. This indicates that Peltier cooling is effective to control the temperature of an electronic device such as a hard-disk head. (C) 2006 American Institute of Physics.
