Abstract
⺠CPP spin valves using Co2Mn(Ga0.5Sn0.5) ferromagnetic layers with a new underlayer material. ⺠NiAl underlayer and spacer improve the thermal tolerance of the spin valve structure. ⺠NiAl underlayer improves MR ratio compared to Ag because of higher annealing temperature. ⺠NiAl spacer degrades MR ratios compared to Ag because of short spin diffusion length. ⺠Potential of heat resistant underlayer and spacer layer for CPP-SV using Heusler alloy.
