After annealing, the atomically flat bottom electrode is covered by a fractional part of a Fe monoatomic layer resulting in two-dimensional Fe islands that are separated for low coverages and percolated above around half a monolayer. The magnetotransport properties of the junctions are studied as a function of this Fe sublayer coverage that is varied from 0 to 1 monolayer. Surprisingly, the magnetoresistance ratio exhibits a maximum for a coverage around half a monolayer. Tunneling spectroscopy experiments performed at low temperature allow relating this result to the decrease of the contribution of the interfacial resonance state to the conductance of the junction.C.T. acknowledges the following projects: SPINCHAT (ANR-07-BLAN-341), POS CCE ID.574, code SMIS-CSNR 12467, and the Exploratory Research Project, “SPINTAIL” PN-II-ID-PCE-2012-4-0315, No. 23/29.08.2013.Peer ReviewedAmerican Physical SocietyUniversité de Lorraine (France)Technical University of Cluj-NapocaCentre National de la Recherche Scientifique (France)Agence Nationale de la Recherche (France)Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas [https://ror.org/02gfc7t72]2016201620152016info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501Publisher's versioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttp://hdl.handle.net/10261/127277reponame:DIGITAL.CSIC.
