Zusammenfassung: | A device including a first magnetic layer, a templating structure and a second magnetic layer is described. The templating structure is on the first magnetic layer. The second magnetic layer is on the templating structure. The templating structure includes D and E. A ratio of D to E is represented by D1-xEx, with x being at least 0.4 and not more than 0.6. E includes a main constituent. The main constituent includes at least one of Al, Ga, and Ge. E includes at least fifty atomic percent of the main constituent. D includes at least one constituent that includes Ir. D includes at least 50 atomic percent of the at least one constituent. The templating structure is nonmagnetic at room temperature. At least one of the first magnetic layer and the second magnetic layer includes at least one of a Heusler compound and an L10 compound. |
