The interfacial effect of amorphous cobalt-iron-boron films deposited on GaAs(001) by DC magnetron-sputtering was precisely studied. It was found that in the Co60Fe20B20/GaAs heterostructure, in-plane uniaxial magnetic anisotropy is a significant magnetic property and a magnetic Schottky barrier contact has been achieved through current-voltage characteristics at the interface.
Interfacial effect of amorphous cobalt-iron-boron (Co60Fe20B20) films deposited on GaAs(001) by DC magnetron-sputtering has been precisely studied. In-plane uniaxial magnetic anisotropy (UMA) as a significant magnetic property has been found in Co60Fe20B20/GaAs heterostructure and the UMA field (H-u) of (similar to 75 Oe) is achieved. Magnetic Schottky barrier contact has been achieved by current-voltage (I -V) characteristic through the interface with a barrier height of 0.72 eV, which is an appropriate for tunneling injection of spin current from ferromagnet to semiconductors in spin-injection devices.
