Voltage-controlled magnetic anisotropy (VCMA) effect is expected as a promising way of low power manipulation of spin. In this work, we report improvement of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy and VCMA efficienty by Ir and W doping in an ultrathin FeB/Fe free layer in magnetic tunnel junction. We found that W doping is effective to improve the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy and Ir doping enhance the VCMA coefficient by a factor of 4.7 compared with the standard structure.
