Improvement of voltage-controlled magnetic anisotropy effect by inserting an ultrathin metal capping layer

We report systematic investigations of the effect of ultrathin capping layer insertion on the magnetic, magnetotransport, and voltage-controlled magnetic anisotropy (VCMA) properties in magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) with top free layer structure. Various kinds of ultrathin capping materials (Ir,...
