In electronics/spintronics, a tunnel junction is a barrier, such as a thin insulating layer or electric potential, between two electrically conducting materials. Electrons (or quasiparticles) pass through the barrier by the process of quantum tunnelling. Classically, the electron has zero probability of passing through the barrier. However, according to quantum mechanics, the electron has a non-zero wave amplitude in the barrier, and hence it has some probability of passing through the barrier. Tunnel junctions serve a variety of different purposes.

| - Une jonction tunnel est, sous sa forme la plus simple, une mince barrière isolante entre deux électrodes conductrices. Le passage du courant se fait par effet tunnel à travers cette barrière. Pour qu'un courant tunnel soit possible l'épaisseur de cette barrière ne doit pas excéder 1 à 2 nanomètres. (fr)
