A memory device includes a spin orbit electrode structure having a dielectric structure including a first sidewall, a second sidewall opposite to the first sidewall, a top surface. The spin orbit electrode structure further includes an electrode having a spin orbit material adjacent to the dielectric structure, where the electrode has a first electrode portion on the top surface, a second electrode portion adjacent to the first sidewall and a third electrode portion adjacent to the second sidewall. The first electrode portion, the second electrode portion and the third electrode portion are contiguous. The spin orbit electrode structure further includes a conductive interconnect in contact with the second electrode portion or the third electrode portion. The memory device further includes a magnetic junction device on a portion of the top surface of the first electrode portion.
