The annealing temperature dependence of the tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) ratio for ferromagnetic tunnel junctions prepared by various oxidation methods was measured. A junction prepared by plasma oxidation showed a TMR ratio of 31.4% before heat treatment, and this ratio increased to 49% after annealing at 300℃ On the other hand, the TMR ratio for a junction prepared by radical oxidation showed a maximum at 350℃. The enhancement of the thermal stability resulted from the different oxidation progress depending on the oxidation method.
