Abstract
We explore magnetic tunnel junctions consisting of Co60Fe40/AlOx/Co2FeSi trilayers on Si(111) by room-temperature molecular beam epitaxy. Even for the all room-temperature fabrication processes, the Co2FeSi layer includes L21-ordered structures. We demonstrate reproducible tunneling magnetoresistance ratios of ~ 44% and ~ 28% at 30 K and 300 K, respectively. Assuming the same room-temperature spin polarization (P) of CoFe alloys, P for Co2FeSi grown at room temperature is larger than that for D03-Fe3Si grown at 130 °C.
