[17p-P10-13] Annealing effect on magnetic anisotropy and its voltage modulation of FeIr/MgO
Keywords:Spintronics, Voltage controlled magnetic anisotropy, spin-orbit interaction
To establishing an efficient electrical control of magnetization for magnetic memory devices, it is important to obtain both a perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) and voltage-controlled magnetic anisotropy (VCMA). It has recently been reported that employing Ir, which has a large spin-orbit interaction, in Fe/MgO system enhances the PMA and VCMA [1]. In this study, we evaluated the PMA and the VCMA of Fe/Ir/MgO multilayers after annealing at various temperatures to reveal the influence of Ir insertion on the magnetic properties.
