Spin-transfer switching and thermal stability in an FePt/Au/FePt nanopillar prepared by alternate monatomic layer deposition

2026-07-072026-07-07http://salesiana.dossiersoluciones.com/handle/123456789/158126We fabricated a current-perpendicular-to-plane giant magnetoresistance (CPP-GMR) nanopillar with a 1-nm-thick FePt free layer having perpendicular anisotropy using the alternate monatomic layer deposition method. Nanopillars consisting of [Fe (1 monolayer (ML))/Pt (1 ML)]n (n: the number of the alternation period) ferromagnetic layers and an Au spacer layer showed spin-transfer induced switching at room temperature.11 pagesMaterials ScienceSpin-transfer switching and thermal stability in an FePt/Au/FePt nanopillar prepared by alternate monatomic layer depositiontext
