摘要:
A magnetic random access memory (MRAM) is disclosed. The MRAM may include a semiconductor substrate serving as a base of a bipolar junction transistor; an emitter and a collector of the bipolar junction transistor provided at an active region of the semiconductor substrate; an MTJ cell positioned at the active region between the emitter and the collector, separately from the emitter and the collector by a predetermined distance; and a word line provided on the MTJ cell. The MRAM may also include a bit line contacting the collector; and a reference voltage line contacting the emitter. As a result, the constitution and fabrication process of the MRAM are simplified to improve productivity and properties of the device.

A biosensor and a sensing cell array using a biosensor are disclosed. Adjacent materials containing plurality of different ingredients are analyzed to determine the ingredients based on their magnetic susceptibility or dielectric constant. A sensing cell array includes such as a magnetization pair detection sensor including a MTJ (Magnetic Tunnel Junction) or GMR to (Giant Magnetoresistive) device, a magnetoresistive sensor including a MTJ device and a magnetic material (current line), a dielectric constant sensor including a sensing capacitor and a switching device, a magnetization hole detection sensor including a MTJ or GMR device, a current line, a free ferromagnetic layer and a switching device, and a giant magnetoresistive sensor including a GMR device, a switching device and a magnetic material (or forcing wordline). Ingredients of adjacent materials are separated based on electrical characteristics of ingredients by sensing magnetic susceptibility and dielectric constant depending on the sizes of the ingredients.

A magnetic random access memory includes a plurality of multi-layered memory structures that are formed within a single memory unit and connected in one of a series and a parallel configuration. Each of the plurality of multi-layered memory structures has a resistance that varies based on a magnetization direction of a ferromagnetic layer. A transistor is operatively coupled to each of the plurality of multi-layered memory structures to perform one of a memory read and a memory write operation based on a conduction state of the transistor.
