Abstract:
A magnetic multilayer film, includes a nonmagnetic layer including a single- or poly-crystalline magnesium oxide in which a (001) crystal plane is preferentially oriented, a very thin layer including an oxide of a 3d transition metal element, and a very thin ferromagnetic layer, laminated in sequence starting on a substrate side.
Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a magnetic memory device includes a stacked body and a controller. The stacked body includes a first conductive layer, a second conductive layer, a first magnetic layer provided between the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer, a second magnetic layer provided between the first magnetic layer and the second conductive layer, and a nonmagnetic layer provided between the first magnetic layer and the second magnetic layer. A resistance value per unit area of the nonmagnetic layer exceeds 20 Ωμm2. The controller is electrically connected to the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer, and supplies a write pulse to the stacked body in a first operation. The write pulse includes a rise period, a potential of the write pulse changing from a first potential toward a second potential in the rise period, an intermediate period of the second potential after the rise period, and a fall period after the intermediate period, the potential of the write pulse changing from the second potential toward the first potential in the fall period. A duration of the fall period is longer than a duration of the rise period.

Abstract:
A resistance change type memory includes a variable resistance element connected between first and second bit lines and a write control circuit including first and second transistors each including a terminal connected to the first bit line. The write control circuit controls write to the variable resistance element. The write control circuit supplies a second voltage to the first bit line with a first pulse width via the second transistor in the ON state after supplying a first voltage to the first bit line via the first transistor.
