Oxide tunnel junctions supporting a two-dimensional electron gas
J. D. Burton, J. P. Velev, E. Y. Tsymbal
The discovery of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the interface between insulating oxides has led to a well-deserved level of excitement due to possible applications as "in…
Surface Magnetoelectric Effect in Ferromagnetic Metal Films
Chun-Gang Duan, Julian P. Velev, R. F. Sabirianov +4
A surface magnetoelectric effect is revealed by density-functional calculations that are applied to ferromagnetic Fe(001), Ni(001) and Co(0001) films in the presence of external el…
Calculations of spin-disorder resistivity from first principles
A. L. Wysocki, K. D. Belashchenko, J. P. Velev +1
Spin-disorder resistivity of Fe and Ni is studied using the noncollinear density functional theory. The Landauer conductance is averaged over random disorder configurations and fit…
Interface effects in spin-dependent tunneling
E. Y. Tsymbal, K. D. Belashchenko, J. P. Velev +4
In the past few years the phenomenon of spin dependent tunneling (SDT) in magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) has aroused enormous interest and has developed into a vigorous field of…
Effect of interface states on spin-dependent tunneling in Fe/MgO/Fe tunnel junctions
K. D. Belashchenko, J. Velev, E. Y. Tsymbal
The electronic structure and spin-dependent tunneling in epitaxial Fe/MgO/Fe(001) tunnel junctions are studied using first-principles calculations. For small MgO barrier thickness…
