MgAl2O4 is promising to substitute barrier material of MgO for magnetic tunnel junctions. By engineering the interface conditions through preparing MgAl2O4 barrier with direct electron beam evaporation method from a high density sintered target, a large PMA energy density is observed around ~1MJ/m3 after 400°C post-annealing. The PMA can survive after 500°C post-annealing and shows a weak measurement temperature dependence. The effective damping constant was also evaluated to be ~0.02 by time-resolved magneto-optic Kerr effect method under high magnetic fields. This study demonstrated robust interface PMA in ultrathin-Fe/MgAl2O4, which is useful for p-MTJ applications.
