A spin tunnel junction based on manganites, with La1−xSrxMnO3 LSMO as ferromagnetic metallic electrodes and the undoped parent compound LaMnO3 LMO as insulating barrier, is here theoretically discussed using double-exchange model Hamiltonians and numerical techniques. For an even number of LMO layers, the ground state is shown to have antiparallel LSMO magnetic moments. This highly resistive, b...
