Abstract
The magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJ) with Hf oxide and modified Hf oxide tunnel barriers were fabricated. MTJ's with Hf oxides showed a tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) ratio of 13% at room temperature and the barrier height was about 1.3 eV. Results showed that the lower TMR ratio of the junction with the Al-Hf oxide than that with the Hf-Al oxide maybe associated with the higher defect density.
