摘要:
A non-volatile memory cell and associated method is disclosed that includes a non-ohmic selection layer. In accordance with some embodiments, a non-volatile memory cell consists of a resistive sense element (RSE) coupled to a non-ohmic selection layer. The selection layer is configured to transition from a first resistive state to a second resistive state in response to a current greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold.

A non-volatile memory cell with a programmable unipolar switching element, and a method of programming the memory element are disclosed. In some embodiments, the memory cell comprises a programmable bipolar resistive sense memory element connected in series with a programmable unipolar resistive sense switching element. The memory element is programmed to a selected resistance state by application of a selected write current in a selected direction through the cell, wherein a first resistance level is programmed by passage of a write current in a first direction and wherein a second resistance level is programmed by passage of a write current in an opposing second direction. The switching element is programmed to a selected resistance level to facilitate access to the selected resistance state of the memory element.

Spinwave transmission systems that include switching devices to direct the transmission of the spinwaves used for data transfer and processing. In one particular embodiment, a system for spinwave transmission has a first magnetic stripe configured for transmission of a spinwave and a second magnetic stripe for transmission of the spinwave, with a gap therebetween. The system includes a coupler that has a first orientation and a second orientation, where in the first orientation, no magnetic connection is made between the magnetic stripes, and in the second orientation, a connection is made between the magnetic stripes. The connection allows transmission of the spinwave from the first magnetic stripe to the second magnetic stripe. The first and second orientation may be the physical position of the coupler, moved by thermal, piezoelectric, or electrostatic forces, or, the first and second orientation may be a magnetic state of the coupler.
