Abstract: Techniques relate to forming a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ). A synthetic antiferromagnetic reference layer is adjacent to a tunnel barrier layer. The synthetic antiferromagnetic reference layer includes a first magnetic layer, a second magnetic layer, and a reference spacer layer sandwiched between the first magnetic layer and the second magnetic layer. A magnetic free layer is adjacent to the tunnel barrier layer so as to be opposite the synthetic antiferromagnetic reference layer. The synthetic antiferromagnetic reference layer has a thickness of at least one of 3 nanometers (nm), 4 nm, and 3-4 nm.

Abstract: In a method of manufacturing a magnetoresistive random access memory, a memory structure may be formed on a substrate. The memory structure may include a lower electrode, a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) structure, and an upper electrode sequentially stacked. A protection layer including silicon nitride may be formed to cover a surface of the memory structure. The protection layer may be formed by a chemical vapor deposition process using plasma and introducing deposition gases including a silicon source gas, a nitrogen source gas containing no hydrogen and a dissociation gas. Damages of the MTJ structure may be decreased during forming the protection layer. Thus, the MRAM may have improved characteristics.

Abstract: A double magnetic tunnel junction includes a bottom reference layer having a first fixed magnetization and a first thickness and formed from at least one material. A first tunnel barrier is on the bottom reference layer. A free layer is on the first tunnel barrier and has a changeable magnetization. A second tunnel barrier is on the free layer. A multilayered top reference layer is formed on the second tunnel barrier having a second fixed magnetization that is opposite to the first fixed magnetization and a second thickness that is smaller than the first thickness, and equal to or greater than the third thickness.

Abstract: An example apparatus and an example method for detecting user's exercise information in an exercise system are disclosed. An example electronic device includes: at least one sensor; a human body communication circuitry; a conductive member electrically connected with the human body communication circuitry and exposed for user contact; and at least one processor. The at least one processor is configured to detect a user's contact to the conductive member, to control the human body communication circuitry to transmit at least one piece of user information to an external device through a body of the user, and, when exercise information is received from the external device, to store the exercise information.
