First-principles study of origin of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in MgO|CoFeB|Ta structures

Using fist-principles calculations, we study the B atom of diffusion process and the origin of the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in MgO|CoFe|Ta structures with boron. It is found that B atoms are more likely to enter the Ta layer than FeCo layer and MgO layer. This result is in good agreement wi...
