For a given Bloch wavevector and band index, the majority-spin shadow-band peak is located near the minority-spin quasiparticle energy and the minority-spin shadow-band peak is located near the majority-spin quasiparticle energy. This property can explain much of the temperature dependence seen in the magnetoresistance of magnetic tunnel junctions.4 pages, 1 figure, submitted to Phys. Rev.
