    Abstract: Enhanced Hc and Hk in addition to higher thermal stability to 400° C. are achieved in magnetic devices by adding dusting layers on top and bottom surfaces of a spacer in a synthetic antiferromagnetic (SAF) structure to give a RL1/DL1/spacer/DL2/RL2 reference layer configuration where RL1 and RL2 layers exhibit perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA), the spacer induces antiferromagnetic coupling between RL1 and RL2, and DL1 and DL2 are dusting layers that enhance PMA. RL1 and RL2 layers are selected from laminates such as (Ni/Co)n, L10 alloys, or rare earth-transition metal alloys. The reference layer may be incorporated in STT-MRAM memory elements or in spintronic devices including a spin transfer oscillator. Dusting layers and a similar SAF design may be employed in a free layer for Ku enhancement and to increase the retention time of a memory cell.

    Abstract: Apparatus and methods are disclosed herein for a reverse-connection STT MTJ element of a MRAM to overcome the source degeneration effect when switching the magnetization of the MTJ element from the parallel to the anti-parallel direction. A memory cell of a MRAM having a reverse-connection MTJ element includes a switching device having a source, a gate, and a drain, and a reverse-connection MTJ device having a free layer, a fixed layer, and an insulator layer interposed between the free layer and the fixed layer. The free layer of the reverse-connection MTJ device is connected to the drain of the switching device and the fixed layer is connected to a bit line (BL). The reverse-connection MTJ device applies the lower IMTJ capability of the memory cell caused by the source degeneration effect to the less stringent IMTJ(AP->P) while preserving the higher IMTJ capability for the more demanding IMTJ(P->AP).

    Abstract: Disclosed herein is an improved memory device, and related methods of manufacturing, wherein the area occupied by a conventional landing pad is significantly reduced to around 50% to 10% of the area occupied by conventional landing pads. This is accomplished by removing the landing pad from the cell structure, and instead forming a conductive via structure that provides the electrical connection from the memory stack or device in the structure to an under-metal layer. By forming only this via structure, rather than separate vias formed on either side of a landing pad, the overall width occupied by the connective via structure from the memory stack to an under-metal layer is substantially reduced, and thus the via structure and under-metal layer may be formed closer to the memory stack (or conductors associated with the stack) so as to reduce the overall width of the cell structure.

    Abstract: A method for projection correction includes following steps. An original image is projected as a projection image on an object. A projection-zone image including the projection image is captured from the object. A projection image outline corresponding to the projection image is obtained from the projection-zone image. An operation is performed on the projection image outline to obtain a horizontal inclination and a vertical inclination. The original image is pre-warped according to the horizontal inclination and the vertical inclination to obtain a corrected image, and the corrected image is projected on the object.
