Kondo Effect in Magnetic Tunnel Junctions with an AlOx Tunnel Barrier.

Abstract

The influence of the magnetization configuration on Kondo effect in magnetic tunnel junction is investigated. In the parallel configuration, an additional resistance contribution (R*) below 40 K exhibits a logarithmic temperature dependence, indicating the presence of Kondo effect. However, in the anti-parallel configuration, the Kondo-effect-associated spin-flip scattering has a nontrivial contribution to the tunneling current, which compensates the reduction of the current directly caused by Kondo scattering, making R* disappear. These results indicate that suppression and restoration of Kondo effect can be experimentally achieved by altering the magnetization configuration, enhancing our understanding of the role of Kondo effect in spin-dependent transport.
