Magnetic and Electrical Properties of Heusler Alloy Co2MnSi Thin Films Grown on Ge(001) Substrates via an Al2O3 Tunnel Barrier
Heusler alloy Co2MnSi/Al2O3 heterostructures on single-crystal Ge(001) substrates were prepared through magnetron sputtering for both Co2MnSi and Al2O3 thin films as a promising candidate for future-generation semiconductor-based spintronic devices. Sufficiently high saturation magnetization 781 emu...
