Tunneling magnetoresistance of Fe/ZnSe (0 0 1) single- and double-barrier junctions as a function of interface structure

In this contribution, we calculate the spin-dependent ballistic and coherent transport through epitaxial Fe/ZnSe (0 0 1) simple and double magnetic tunnel junctions with two different interface terminations: Zn-terminated and Se-terminated. The electronic structure of the junctions is modeled by a s...
