    摘要: A magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) device is configured to store at least two bits of data in a single cell utilizing the variable resistance characteristic of a MTJ. The MTJ includes a soft and two fixed magnetic layers with fixed field directions oriented in perpendicular directions. The soft magnetic layer is separated from the fixed layers by insulating layers preferably with different thicknesses, or with different material compositions. The resulting junction resistance can exhibit at least four distinct resistance values dependent on the magnetic orientation of the free magnetic layer. The cell is configured using a pattern with four lobes to store two bits, and eight lobes to store three bits. The resulting cell can be used to provide a fast, non-volatile magnetic random access memory (MRAM) with high density and no need to rewrite stored data after they are read, or as a fast galvanic isolator.

    摘要: A memory system that employs simultaneous activation of at least two dissimilar memory arrays, during a data manipulation, such as read or write operations is disclosed. An exemplary embodiment includes a memory system containing a plurality of arrays, each in communication with a common controller, wherein the arrays are activated by different supply voltage (Vdd). When a processor sends a command to retrieve or write data to the memory system, two or more arrays are addressed to supply the required data. By proper partitioning of the data between dissimilar arrays, the efficiency of data reading is improved.

    摘要: A method which makes it possible to define in a patterning layer openings having a first dimension that is substantially less than the feature size that can be obtained lithographically includes applying a sacrificial layer made of a material that is different from that of the patterning layer in a predetermined layer thickness on the patterning layer. Afterward, a photoresist layer is applied on the surface of the sacrificial layer, and an opening having a second dimension is defined lithographically in the photoresist layer. Afterward, an etching angle is set in a manner dependent on the layer thickness of the sacrificial layer and also the first and second dimensions, and the sacrificial layer is etched at the etching angle set. Afterward, the patterning layer is etched, the sacrificial layer is removed and a filling material is introduced into the opening produced in the patterning layer.
