Abstract
Two-dimensional materials are promising candidates for use as tunnel barrier in atomically thin magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs). High magneto resistance ratios have been predicted theoretically and recent progress in large scale manufacturing of these materials has paved the way towards their integrations in functional devices. Yet, the experimental results available so far vary greatly depending on the integration pathways. Here, we show that first-principles calculations can provide useful insights into the close relation that links the interface morphology to its magneto resistive behaviour. In particular, we illustrate the phenomena of hybridization, charge transfert and momentum selection in based 2D-MTJs based on h-BN, graphene and TMDCs .
