  • Abstract
    Spin-polarized tunneling of electrons through Ni-NiO-Ni, Co, and Fe junctions is discussed. The hysteresis of the tunneling resistance in a magnetic field originates in the magnetization process and demonstrates a new interplay of electronic and magnetic properties in ferromagnetic metals.
