Abstract

Effect of inductively coupled plasma (ICP) oxidation on properties of magnetic tunnel junction was studied. The retention of the magnetoresistance effect in spite of the prolonged oxidation duration was attributed to the dense amorphous AlOx structure formed by the ICP process. It was observed that the junctions with a ICP oxidized tunnel barrier maintained the tunneling magnetoresistance ratio over 15%.
