We studied the effect of spin injection on tunneling conduction properties of intrinsic Josephson junctions formed in $Bi_2$$Sr_2$$CaCu_2$$O_{ 8＋x}$ single crystals. properties of an identical stack (10${\times}$5.0${\times}$0.030 $\mu\textrm{m}^3$) of intrinsic Josephson junctions were compared for the bias current injected through Au and Co electrodes. The suppression of the superconducting gap in the $_2$ double layers and the interlayer Josephson critical current was manifested in the tunneling current-voltage characteristics of the stacks. This effect appears to be caused by the pair breaking associated with spin-polarized carriers injected from the Co electrode into the $Bi_2$$Sr_2$$_2$O$CaCu_{ 8＋x}$ single crystal. This study may provide valuable information on clarifying the mechanism of high- $T_{c}$ superconductivity.y.y.

The discoveries of antiferromagnetic coupling in Fe/Cr multilayers by Grunberg, the Giant Magneto Resistance by Fert and Grunberg and a large tunneling magnetoresistance at room temperature by Moodera have triggered enormous research on magnetic thin films and magnetoelectronic devices. Large opportunities are especially opened by the spin dependent tunneling resistance, where a strong dependence of the tunneling current on an external magnetic field can be found. We will briefly address important basic properties of these junctions like thermal, magnetic and dielectric stability and discuss scaling issues down to junction sizes below 0.01 $\mu\textrm{m}$$^2$with respect to single domain behavior, switching properties and edge coupling effects. The second part will give an overview on applications beyond the use of the tunneling elements as storage cells in MRAMs. This concerns mainly field programmable logic circuits, where we demonstrate the clocked operation of a programmed AND gate. The second 'unconventional' feature is the use as sensing elements in DNA or protein biochips, where molecules marked magnetically with commercial beads can be detected via the dipole stray field in a highly sensitive and relatively simple way.

Giant magnetoresistance (GMR), tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR), and magnetic random-access memory (MRAM) are currently active research areas in spintronics. The high magnetoresistance and the high spin polarization (P) of electrons in the ferromagnetic electrodes of tunnel junction or intermediate layers are required. Magnetite, Fe3O4, is predicted to possess as half-metallic nature, P ~ 100% spin polarization, and has a high Curie temperature (TC~850 K). Experiments demonstrated that the P~($80{\pm}5$)%, ~($60{\pm}5$)%, and ~40-55% for epitaxial (111), (110) and (001)-oriented Fe3O4 thin films, respectively. Epitaxial Fe3O4 films may enable us to investigate the effects of half metals on the spin transport without grain-boundary scattering.In addition, it has been reported that the Verwey transition (TV, a first order metal-insulator transition) of 120 K in bulk Fe3O4 is strongly affected by many parameters such as stoichiometry and stress, etc. Here we report that the growth modes, magnetism and transport properties of Fe3O4 thin films were strongly dependent on the oxygen pressure during film growth. The average roughness decreases from 1.021 to 0.263 nm for the oxygen pressure increase from $2.3{\times}10-7$ to $8.2{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr, respectively. The 120 K Verwey transition in Fe3O4 was disappeared for the sample grown under high oxygen pressure.

We have used acetic acids ethanol and distilled water as a solvent to synthesize $La_{2/3}Sr_{1/3}Mn_{0.99}{^{57}}Fe_{0.01}O_3$(LSMFO) precursor. Crack-free LSMFO granular polycrystalline thin films have been deposited on thermally oxidized silicon substrates by spin coaling. The dependence of crystallization, surface morphology, magnetic and transport properties on annealing temperature was investigated. With increasing annealing temperature, the metal-semiconductor (insulator) transition temperature and the magnetic moment decrease while the resistivity increases. The lattice constants remain almost unchanged. For LSMFO thin films, spin-dependent interfacial tunneling and/or scattering magnetoresistance were observed. Our results indicate that the annealing temperature is very important in determining the intrinsic and extrinsic magnetotransport properties.

이 연구에서는 DC스퍼터링(DC Magnetron Sputtering)방식으로 제작 된 MgO 터널 장벽층을 갖는 자기터널접합을 급속 열처리 방식(Rapid Thermal Annealing)을 이용하여 열처리 공정 중의 구조적, 조성적 변화 및 스핀 수송 특성의 변화를 연구하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 급속 열처리 방식이 기존 일반적인 열처리 방식에 비하여 높은 터널링자기저항비를 얻을 수 있다는 것을 발견하였다. 또한, 열처리 시간의 단축을 통하여 Mn, Ta, Ru 등의 내부물질의 인접한 층으로의 확산을 억제할 수 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 유의미한 데이터를 수집하기 위하여 다양한 열처리 온도 조건과 시간조건에서 급속 열처리를 실시 한 후 자기 터널 접합의 전, 자기적 특성을 관찰하였다. 이러한 특성 변화는 향후 보다 우수하고 안정적인 자기적 특성과 열적 안정성을 갖는 자기터널접합 제작을 위해 다양하게 응용될 수 있다고 생각된다.

Giant magnetoresistance (GMR), tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR), and magnetic random-access memory (MRAM) are currently active areas of research. Magnetite, Fe3O4, is predicted to possess as half-metallic nature, ~100% spin polarization (P), and has a high Curie temperature (TC~850 K). On the other hand, Spinel ferrite CoFe2O4 has been widely studies for various applications such as magnetorestrictive sensors, microwave devices, biomolecular drug delivery, and electronic devices, due to its large magnetocrystalline anisotropy, chemical stability, and unique nonlinear spin-wave properties. Here we have investigated the magneto-transport properties of epitaxial CoxFe3-xO4 thin films. The epitaxial CoxFe3-xO4 (x=0; 0.4; 0.6; 1) thin films were successfully grown on MgO (100) substrate by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The quality of the films during growth was monitored by reflection high electron energy diffraction (RHEED). From temperature dependent resistivity measurement, we observed that the Werwey transition (1st order metal-insulator transition) temperature increased with increasing x and the resistivity of film also increased with the increasing x up to $1.6{\Omega}-cm$ for x=1. The magnetoresistance (MR) was measured with magnetic field applied perpendicular to film. A negative transverse MR was disappeared with x=0.6 and 1. Anomalous Hall data will be discussed.
