Gaseous H5P2O8- ions: a theoretical and experimental study on the hydrolysis and synthesis of diphosphate ion.

The structure and reactivity of gaseous H5P2O8- ions obtained from the chemical ionization (CI) of an H4P2O7/H2O mixture and from electrospray ionization (ESI) of CH3CN/H2O/H4P2O7 solutions were investigated by Fourier transform ion cyclotron (FTICR) and triple quadrupole mass spectrometry. Theoretical calculations performed at the B3LYP/6-31+G* level of theory and collisionally activated dissociation (CAD) mass spectrometric results allowed the ionic population obtained in the CI conditions to be structurally characterized as a mixture of gaseous [H3P2O7...H2O]-, [H3PO4...H2PO4]-, and [PO3...H3PO4...H2O]- clusters. The energy profile emerging from theoretical calculations affords insight into the mechanism of diphosphate ion hydrolysis and synthesis.

Giant tunnelling magnetoresistance at room temperature with MgO (100) tunnel barriers.

Magnetically engineered magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) show promise as non-volatile storage cells in high-performance solid-state magnetic random access memories (MRAM). The performance of these devices is currently limited by the modest (< approximately 70%) room-temperature tunnelling magnetoresistance (TMR) of technologically relevant MTJs. Much higher TMR values have been theoretically predicted for perfectly ordered (100) oriented single-crystalline Fe/MgO/Fe MTJs. Here we show that sputter-deposited polycrystalline MTJs grown on an amorphous underlayer, but with highly oriented (100) MgO tunnel barriers and CoFe electrodes, exhibit TMR values of up to approximately 220% at room temperature and approximately 300% at low temperatures. Consistent with these high TMR values, superconducting tunnelling spectroscopy experiments indicate that the tunnelling current has a very high spin polarization of approximately 85%, which rivals that previously observed only using half-metallic ferromagnets. Such high values of spin polarization and TMR in readily manufactureable and highly thermally stable devices (up to 400 degrees C) will accelerate the development of new families of spintronic devices.

Giant room-temperature magnetoresistance in single-crystal Fe/MgO/Fe magnetic tunnel junctions.

The tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) effect in magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) is the key to developing magnetoresistive random-access-memory (MRAM), magnetic sensors and novel programmable logic devices. Conventional MTJs with an amorphous aluminium oxide tunnel barrier, which have been extensively studied for device applications, exhibit a magnetoresistance ratio up to 70% at room temperature. This low magnetoresistance seriously limits the feasibility of spintronics devices. Here, we report a giant MR ratio up to 180% at room temperature in single-crystal Fe/MgO/Fe MTJs. The origin of this enormous TMR effect is coherent spin-polarized tunnelling, where the symmetry of electron wave functions plays an important role. Moreover, we observed that their tunnel magnetoresistance oscillates as a function of tunnel barrier thickness, indicating that coherency of wave functions is conserved across the tunnel barrier. The coherent TMR effect is a key to making spintronic devices with novel quantum-mechanical functions, and to developing gigabit-scale MRAM.
