Structure of magnetic random access memory using spin-torque transfer writing
A nano-magnetic device includes a first hard magnet having a first magnetization direction and having a central axis. The device also includes a second hard magnet separated from the first hard magnet by a dielectric liner. The second hard magnet has a second magnetization direction opposite to the first magnetization direction of the first hard magnet, and a central axis, such that when the first hard magnet and the second hard magnet are aligned a closed magnetic flux loop is formed through the first and second hard magnets. The device additionally includes a ferromagnetic free layer having a central axis. A spin-torque transfer current passes along the central axes of the first and second hard magnets and the ferromagnetic free layer, and affects the magnetization direction of the ferromagnetic free layer.
