摘要

We present first-principles based calculations of electronic structures and tunneling conductance of Co_2YZ/MgO(~2 nm)/Co_2rZ(001) (YZ=MnSi,CrAl) magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs). It is found that YZ(MnSi and CrAI)-terminated interfaces are thermodynamically stable as compared with Co-terminated interfaces in Co_2YZ/MgO(001) junctions. In the CrAl-termination, no interface states appear in both sides of the junctions, preserving the half metallicity of Co_2CrAl, while reduction of the spin polarization is significant in the MnSi termination. Co_2CrAl, however, has no Δ_1, band at the Fermi level, thus the majority-spin conductance of Co_2CrAl/MgO/Co_2CrAl(001) MTJs in the parallel magnetization is much smaller than that of Co_2MnSi/MgO/Co_2MnSi(001) MTJs. We propose that MTJs having an ultrathin Co2CrAl layer between Co_2MnSi electrode and MgO barrier, i.e., Co_2MnSi/Co_2CrAl/MgO(001) junctions, can derive both the half-metallic character at the interface and the large tunneling conductance through the Δ_1 channel in the parallel magnetization.
