Abstract
The magnetic electrodes with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) have gained a great deal of attention in magnetic information storage technology. The use of perpendicular magnetic tunnel junctions (p-MTJs) enhances the storage density due to the reduction in area required for a unit bit. Among two electrodes in a MTJ structure (ferromagnetic/insulator/ferromagnetic), one electrode should be fixed or pinned to a specific direction of magnetization in order to have a unidirectional magnetic anisotropy with higher exchange field. This can be achieved by a phenomenon of exchange bias observed between the ferromagnetic (FM) and the anti-ferromagnetic (AFM) materials as a shift in a hysteresis loop when they are deposited in a presence of an external applied field.
