Magneto resistance random access memory element

摘要

A method to switch a scalable magnetoresistive memory cell including the steps of providing a magnetoresistive memory device sandwiched between a word line and a digit line so that current waveforms can be applied to the word and digit lines at various times to cause a magnetic field flux to rotate the effective magnetic moment vector of the device by approximately 180°. The magnetoresistive memory device includes N ferromagnetic layers that are anti-ferromagnetically coupled. N can be adjusted to change the magnetic switching volume of the device.
