Self-referenced magnetic random access memory element comprising a synthetic storage layer
Abstract:
The present disclosure concerns a MRAM element comprising a magnetic tunnel junction comprising: a storage layer, a sense layer, and a tunnel barrier layer included between the storage layer and the sense layer; the storage layer comprising a first magnetic layer having a first storage magnetization; a second magnetic layer having a second storage magnetization; and a non-magnetic coupling layer separating the first and second magnetic layers such that the first storage magnetization is substantially antiparallel to the second storage magnetization; the first and second magnetic layers being arranged such that: at a read temperature the first storage magnetization is substantially equal to the second storage magnetization; and at a write temperature which is higher than the read temperature the second storage magnetization is larger than the first storage magnetization. The disclosed MRAM element generates a low stray field when the magnetic tunnel junction is cooled at a low temperature.
