摘要：
Spin dependent tunneling has been investigated in tunnel junctions composed of a variety of materials. The best results thus far have been with either HfO2 or MgO as the barrier layer using CoFe, Fe, or Co as the magnetic electrodes. The maximum magnetoresistive (MR) response of these junctions has been at low temperatures on the order of 30% in HfO2 and 20% in MgO. We have also observed a variety of anomalous behavior in some of our tunnel junctions at low temperature. These include MR effects dependent on the angle of orientation of the tunnel junction in the applied magnetic field, transition fields greater than 10kOe, and negative MR effects on the order of 2%.
