Interfacial capacitance effects in magnetic tunneling junctions
We have fabricated magnetic tunneling junctions by oxidizing a wedge-shaped aluminum layer to produce junctions with ideal oxidized as well as under and over oxidized junctions on a single wafer. By investigating the capacitance spectra, we are able to study the effects due to interface charge accumulation. The electron–electron interaction among accumulated interface charges leads to a voltage...
متن کاملSpin-polarized tunnelling, magnetoresistance and interfacial effects in ferromagnetic junctions
The pioneering studies of spin-polarized tunnelling by Meservey and Tedrow in the early 1970s showed that the conduction electrons in ferromagnetic (FM) metals are spin polarized and that the spin is conserved in the tunnelling process. Only recently (1995) improved material fabrication techniques have permitted realization of the JullieÁ re quantitative model, showing that tunnelling in ferrom...
متن کاملTransient switch-on/off currents in molecular junctions.
Based on the nonequilibrium density matrix theory we put forward a unified description of the transient and the steady state current formation through a molecular junction. It is demonstrated that the current follows the time evolution of the populations of those molecular charged states which participate in the inter-electrode charge transmission. As an example, the formation of switch-on/swit...
متن کاملPronounced Environmental Effects on Injection Currents in EGaIn Tunneling Junctions Comprising Self-Assembled Monolayers
Large-area tunneling junctions using eutectic Ga-In (EGaIn) as a top contact have proven to be a robust, reproducible, and technologically relevant platform for molecular electronics. Thus far, the majority of studies have focused on saturated molecules with backbones consisting mainly of alkanes in which the frontier orbitals are either highly localized or energetically inaccessible. We show t...
متن کاملExploring local currents in molecular junctions.
Electron transfer through molecules is an ubiquitous process underlying the function of biological systems and synthetic devices. The electronic coupling between components varies with the structure of the molecular bridge, often in classically unintuitive ways, as determined by its quantum electronic structure. Considerable efforts in electron-transfer theory have yielded models that are usefu...
