摘要： Magnetic or magnetoresistive random access memories (MRAMs) are implemented in a variety of arrangements and methods. Using one such arrangement, a matrix is implemented with magnetoresistive memory cells logically organized in rows and columns, each memory cell including a magnetoresistive element. The matrix has a set of column lines, a column line being a continuous conductive strip which is magnetically coupled to the magnetoresistive element of each of the memory cells of a column, wherein each column line has a forward column line and a return column line arranged on opposite sides of the magnetoresistive element and offset from one another for forming a return path for current in that column line.

The wordline and bitline are arranged substantially orthogonal to one another. The growth layer, in turn, comprises tantalum and has a thickness greater than about 75 Angstroms. Moreover, the pinned layer comprises one or more pinned ferromagnetic sublayers. The tunnel barrier comprises magnesium oxide. Finally, the free layer comprises two or more free ferromagnetic sublayers, each free ferromagnetic sublayer having a magnetic anisotropy axis that is oriented about 45 degrees from the wordline and bitline. The semiconductor device may comprise, for example, a magnetic tunnel junction for use in magnetoresistive random access memory (MRAM) circuitry.

摘要： A multi-state low-current-switching magnetic memory element (magnetic memory element) comprising a free layer, two stacks, and a magnetic tunneling junction is disclosed. The stacks and magnetic tunneling junction are disposed upon surfaces of the free layer, with the magnetic tunneling junction located between the stacks. The stacks pin magnetic domains within the free layer, creating a free layer domain wall. A current passed from stack to stack pushes the domain wall, repositioning the domain wall within the free layer. The position of the domain wall relative to the magnetic tunnel junction corresponds to a unique resistance value, and passing current from a stack to the magnetic tunnel junction reads the magnetic memory element's resistance. Thus, unique memory states may be achieved by moving the domain wall.

摘要： Method of magnetization reversal of the magnetization (M) of at least one first magnetic memory element of an array of magnetic memory elements comprising the steps of: applying a first magnetic field pulse to a first set of magnetic memory elements, and applying a second magnetic field pulse to a second set of magnetic memory elements, such that during the application of the first and second magnetic field pulse the magnetization (M) of said first magnetic memory element which is to be reversed upon the field pulse decay performs approximately an odd number of a half precessional turns, wherein the magnetization (M) of at least one second magnetic memory element which is not to be reversed upon the field pulse decay performs approximately a number of full precessional turns. The underlying concept of the invention is to improve the bit addressing in an array of magnetic memory cells by reducing the ringing of the magnetization of the free layer of the magnetic cells which are not selected for reversal but which are nevertheless subject to the application of a magnetic field pulse. This can be achieved by applying a field pulse to these cells which induces approximately a full precessional turn of the magnetization of the free layer of the cells. After the full precessional turn the magnetization is oriented very near the initial orientation along the easy application of the half select field pulse is reduced.
摘要翻译：磁存储元件阵列的至少一个第一磁存储元件的磁化（M）的磁化反转方法包括以下步骤：将第一磁场脉冲施加到第一组磁存储元件，以及施加第二磁性场脉冲到第二组磁存储元件，使得在施加第一和第二磁场脉冲期间，所述第一磁存储元件的磁场（M）在场脉冲衰减时被反转，执行大约奇数其中在场脉冲衰减时不被反转的至少一个第二磁存储元件的磁化强度（M）执行大约一定数量的全进位匝数。本发明的基本概念是通过减少不被选择用于反转的磁性单元的自由层的磁化的振荡来改善磁存储单元的阵列中的位寻址，但仍然需要应用磁场脉冲。这可以通过对这些单元施加场脉冲来实现，这些单元引起单元自由层的磁化的大致完全转动。在完全进动转弯之后，磁化方向非常接近初始取向，沿着半选择场脉冲的容易应用减小。
