    摘要: Disclosed is a magnetic device including a spin sinker. The magnetic device includes a storage medium, a spin sinker, and a read node. The storage medium receives an in-plane current from outside and generates a self-generated spin current that perpendicularly flows to a charge current, thereby controlling a data structure with the self-generated spin current. The spin sinker receives and attenuates the spin current. The read node measures a magnetoresistance of a data structure through the storage medium. The storage medium is made of a magnetic metal and the spin sinker is made of a magnetic insulating material.

    摘要: A magnetoresistance effect element where asymmetry of an inversion current due to a leakage magnetic field from a magnetization fixed layer is decreased. A magnetoresistance effect element includes a first ferromagnetic layer whose magnetization direction is variable, a second ferromagnetic layer whose magnetization direction is fixed, and a nonmagnetic layer sandwiched between the first ferromagnetic layer and the second ferromagnetic layer which are laminated in a first direction which is a lamination direction, where both the first ferromagnetic layer and the second ferromagnetic layer are curved so that central portions of the first and second ferromagnetic layers protrude with respect to outer circumferential portions in the first direction, and protruding directions of the central portions are opposite to each other so that a distance between the outer circumferential portions is larger than a distance between the central portions in the first direction.
