description | Magnetic tunnel junction-based molecular spintronics device (MTJMSD) may enable novel magnetic metamaterials by chemically bonding magnetic molecules and ferromagnets (FM) with a vast range of magnetic anisotropy. MTJMSD have experimentally shown intriguing microscopic phenomenon such as the development of highly contrasting magnetic phases on a ferromagnetic electrode at room temperature. This paper focuses on Monte Carlo Simulations (MCS) on MTJMSD to understand the potential mechanism and explore fundamental knowledge about the impact of magnetic anisotropy. The selection of MCS is based on our prior study showing the potential of MCS in explaining experimental results (Tyagi et al. in Nanotechnology 26:305602, 2015). In this paper, MCS is carried out on the 3D Heisenberg model of cross-junction-shaped MTJMSDs. Our research represents the experimentally studied cross-junction-shaped MTJMSD where paramagnetic molecules are covalently bonded between two FM electrodes along the exposed side edges of the magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ). We have studied atomistic MTJMSDs properties by simulating a wide range of easy-axis anisotropy for the case of experimentally observed predominant molecule-induced strong antiferromagnetic coupling. Our study focused on understanding the effect of anisotropy of the FM electrodes on the overall MTJMSDs at various temperatures. This study shows that the multiple domains of opposite spins start to appear on an FM electrode as the easy-axis anisotropy increases. Interestingly, MCS results resembled the experimentally observed highly contrasted magnetic zones on the ferromagnetic electrodes of MTJMSD. The magnetic phases with starkly different spins were observed around the molecular junction on the FM electrode with high anisotropy. |
