Magnetic random access memory devices including heat generating layers and related methods

摘要

A magnetic random access memory device may include a first electrode on a substrate, a magnetic tunneling junction element electrically connected to the electrode, and a second electrode electrically connected to the first electrode through the magnetic tunneling junction element. In addition, a heat generating layer may be electrically connected in series between the first and second electrodes, and the heat generating layer may provide a relatively high resistance with respect to electrical current flow. Related methods are also discussed.
