A memory element uses a conventional MTJ for reading purposes and a separate magnetic reference stack which is briefly heated while information is written into it. This information is then magnetostatically imposed on the MTJ's free layer which is located nearby. In this way the MTJ can be optimized for maximum dr/r while the reference stack can be optimized for optimum stability, since there is no half select problem. A process for manufacturing the memory element is also described.
