“…Similar results were obtained in inverted stacks, where the CoFeB free layer was grown on top of the MgO tunnel barrier and capped with Ru or Pd layers. As discussed earlier, a CoFeB layer can crystallize into a different structure/texture depending on the adjacent seed-or cap-layer [Yuasa 2007, Miyajima 2009, Karthik 2012]. Based on published results, CoFeB crystallizes into bcc (0 0 1), fcc (1 1 1), or bcc (1 1 0) when it is directly in contact with a Ru layer, a NiFe layer, or a Pd layer, respectively [Yuasa 2007, Miyajima 2009, Karthik 2012.…”
