| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Toward spintronic devices with low power consumption, we investigated the interface magnetic anisotropy of metallic ferromagnet (FM)/oxide antiferromagnet stacked film. In particular we focused on the microscopic mechanism and the electric-field control of the exchange anisotropy at the FM/Cr2O3 interface. Main results are (1) the exchange anisotropy energy density changes with the ferromagnetic layer composition and the crystalline quality of the Cr2O3 layer, (2) the new type of temperature dependence of exchange anisotropy, i.e. the high temperature regeneration was found in the Pt/Co/0.2-nm-thick Pt/Cr2O3/Pt stacked film, (3) the interfacial uncompensated Cr spins are un-reversed with the FM spin reversal. We also developed the electric-field induced switching of the exchange anisotropy based on the magneto-electric effect of Cr2O3.
