The magnetoresistance of Fe/MgO/Fe magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) was studied taking into consideration image forces. For MTJs with an MgO insulator, explanations are given of the giant tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) effect and the effect of the increasing TMR with an increase in MgO insulator thickness. It is demonstrated that the electron current density through MTJs can be high enough to switch the magnetization of a ferromagnetic electrode.
