Abstract:Quantum well (QW) states formed in a double-barrier magnetic tunnel junction (DMTJ) enable the coherent resonant tunneling of electrons. This phenomenon is significant for both the fundamental understanding of quantum transport and the development of advanced functionalities in spintronic devices. Careful engineering of the structural and chemical disorders at the QW/barrier interface is essential to maintain strong electron phase coherence, thereby ensuring reliable conductance oscillations in DMTJ.
