    Dry Etching of MRAM Structures

    A wide variety of GMR and CMR materials have been patterned by high density plasma etching in both corrosive (Cl2-based) and non-corrosive (CO/NH3) plasma chemistries. The former produce much higher etch rates bu...

    Dry and Wet Etch Processes for NiMnSb, LaCaMnO3 and Related Materials

    A variety of plasma etching chemistries were examined for patterning NiMnSb Heusler thin films and associated A12O3 barrier layers. Chemistries based on SF6 and Cl2 were all found to provide faster etch rates tha...

    Structural and Magnetotransport Properties of NiMnSb/Cu and NiMnSb/Ag Multilayers

    We report on the integration of the predicted half-metallic (100% spin-polarized) ferromagnetic Heusler alloy NiMnSb into NiMnSb/Cu and NiMnSb/Ag multilayer structures, and on their magnetic, microstructural a...

    Low-Temperature Growth of NiMnSb Heusler Alloy Thin Films

    Ferromagnetic Heusler alloys such as NiMnSb may have unique applications to magnetoresistive devices because of their predicted half-metallic band-structure (i.e., 100% spin-polarized at the Fermi level). Howe...

    Sputter-deposition of NiMnSb magnetic thin films from a composite target onto Si substrates

    We have deposited ferromagnetic NiMnSb thin films by sputtering from a single composite target onto Si wafer substrates. Similarly to earlier results using glass substrates, we find that a combination of low r...
