Abstract: | A strong voltage-dependent tunneling anisotropic magnetoresistance (TAMR) effect was observed in a fully epitaxial Co2MnSi/n-GaAs junction and a Co50Fe50/n-GaAs junction. Angular dependence of the tunnel resistance showed uniaxial-type anisotropic tunnel resistance between the [110] and [11ˉ0] directions in the (001) plane. The voltage at which the TAMR effect was suppressed was close to that at which the differential conductance reached a minimum in both samples, suggesting that the strength and/or the sign of the internal electric field at the Co2MnSi/n-GaAs and Co50Fe50/n-GaAs junctions could be related to the voltage-dependent TAMR effect through spin-orbit interaction. |
