Method and device for huge magnetoresistance in graphene-based magnetic tunnel junctions with segmented potentials

摘要

A graphene-based magnetic tunnel junction is disclosed. The magnetic tunnel junction can enhance the tunnel magnetoresistance ratio and a device including the magnetic tunnel junction. The magnetic tunnel junction includes: a pinned layer; a free layer; and a graphene with segmented potentials configured between the pinned layer and the free layer. The magnetic tunnel junction may be a series or parallel connection of the above-mentioned basic form. The device including a magnetic tunnel junction may be a magnetic random access memory bit cell, a magnetic tunnel junction transistor device, a magnetic field sensor, etc.
