Abstract

See full text

A magnetic memory device can include an upper electrode, a lower electrode and a Magnetic Tunnel Junction (MTJ). The MTJ can include a reference magnetic pattern configured to generate a fixed magnetization and a free magnetic pattern on the reference magnetic pattern configured to generate a switchable magnetization that switches direction between parallel and anti-parallel to the fixed magnetization. A metal pattern can be on the free magnetic pattern and can be configured to conduct an in-plane current and a perpendicular-to-plane to/from the upper electrode.
