Abstract
We report the observation of tunneling anisotropic magnetoresistance effect (TAMR) in the epitaxial metal-semiconductor system Fe/GaAs/Au. The observed two-fold anisotropy of the resistance can be switched by reversing the bias voltage, suggesting that the effect originates from the interference of the spin-orbit coupling at the interfaces. Corresponding model calculations reproduce the experimental findings very well.
