Magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) using L1(0)-ordered CoPt electrodes with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy were fabricated. Full-epitaxial CoPt/MgO/CoPt-MTJs were prepared onto single crystal MgO-(001) substrate by sputtering method. X-ray diffraction analyses revealed that both bottom and top CoPt electrodes were epitaxially grown with (001)-orientation. The L1(0)-chemical order parameter of 0.82 was obtained for the bottom CoPt electrode deposited at substrate temperature of 600 degrees C. The transport measurements with applying magnetic field perpendicular to the film plane showed a tunnel magnetoresistance ratio of 6% at room temperature and 13% at 10 K.
