Fully epitaxial ferromagnet/semiconductor/ferromagnet heterojunctions is one of the fundamental building blocks of a vertical-type spin metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor. ZnO is a typical oxide semiconductor and has a wurtzite type crystal structure. It has been recently demonstrated that a thin ZnO film with a rock-salt (RS) crystal structure can be epitaxial grown on MgO(001). In this study, we examined to grow fully epitaxial Fe/RS-ZnO/MgO/Fe structure and conducted a detailed investigation on its structural properties.
