In this study, for the first time, the effect of Nickel (Ni) additive on Magnesium oxide (MgO)
thin films produced by using successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction technique …

Intergranular oxidation of a Ni–4Al alloy exposed to hydrogenated, high-temperature water
was characterized using directly correlated transmission electron microscopy and atom …

Atom-probe tomography (APT) is a unique analysis tool that enables true three-dimensional
(3-D) analyses with sub-nano scale spatial resolution. Recent implementations of the local …

We systematically investigated the influence of the dead layer, the oxidation degree of
naturally oxidized MgO, the structure of adjacent nonmagnetic metal layers on the damping …

A pure spin current generated within a nonlocal spin valve can exert a spin-transfer torque
on a nanomagnet. This nonlocal torque enables new design schemes for magnetic memory …

A method based on the Gibbs' adsorption isotherm is developed to calculate the decrease in
interfacial free energy resulting from solute segregation at an internal interface, built on …

The differences in artifacts associated with voltage-pulsed and laser-pulsed (wavelength=
532 or 355 nm) atom-probe tomographic (APT) analyses of nanoscale precipitation in a high …

The interface roughness, Boron distribution in bulk CoFeB and at interface, Gilbert damping
constant (α), and inhomogeneous broadening in ion-beam sputtered Si/CoFeB (8)/MgO …

Abstract CoFeB/MgO/CoFeB tri-layer thin-film stacks have been widely used in the design of
STT-RAM devices as functional magnetic-tunnel-junction (MTJ) structures. The materials …

The textured MgO (001) tunnel barrier grown on CoFeB is a fundamental building block for
spintronic devices such as magnetic tunnel junctions. Although the insertion of an ultrathin …
