HYBRID SYNTHETIC ANTIFERROMAGNETIC LAYER FOR PERPENDICULAR MAGNETIC TUNNEL JUNCTION (MTJ) |
摘要 |
A magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) device includes a free layer. The MTJ also includes a barrier layer coupled to the free layer. The MTJ also has a fixed layer, coupled to the barrier layer. The fixed layer includes a first synthetic antiferromagnetic (SAF) multilayer having a first perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) and a first damping constant. The fixed layer also includes a second SAF multilayer having a second perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) and a second damping constant lower than the first damping constant. The first SAF multilayer is closer to the barrier layer than the second SAF multilayer. The fixed layer also includes a SAF coupling layer between the first and the second SAF multilayers. |

1. A method of fabricating a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) device, comprising:
depositing a first synthetic antiferromagnetic (SAF) multilayer having a first perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) and a first damping constant; depositing a SAF coupling layer on the first SAF multilayer; depositing a second SAF multilayer having a second perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) and a second damping constant lower than the first damping constant; depositing a barrier layer on the second SAF multilayer; and depositing a free layer on the barrier layer. |
