A joint research group led by Professor Masaaki Tanaka (Graduate School of Engineering) and Assistant Professor Le Duc Anh has produced the world’s first FeAs/InAs ferromagnetic superlattice structure using low-temperature molecular beam epitaxy crystal growth, and found unique and promising spintronic properties such as a sharp increase in the ferromagnetic transition temperature and a giant magnetoresistance effect of more than 500%. The resultant paper was published in Nature Communications on 7 July.
