Heterostructures for Realizing Magnon-Induced Spin Transfer Torque

Figure 6

(a) Room temperature current in plane magneto resistance measurements on Py(300 Å)/Cr(41 Å)/Fe3O4(300 Å) spin valves. The shoulders are the antiparallel state. The AMR peak of the Py is unavoidable because of the conductivity mismatch between the metals and the oxide. (b) GMR as a function of Cr spacer layer thickness.
