    摘要： A spin-transfer torque memory unit includes a free magnetic layer having a magnetic easy axis; a reference magnetic element having a magnetization orientation that is pinned in a reference direction; an electrically insulating and non-magnetic tunneling barrier layer separating the free magnetic layer from the magnetic reference element; and a compensation element adjacent to the free magnetic layer. The compensation element applies a bias field on the magnetization orientation of the free magnetic layer. The bias field is formed of a first vector component parallel to the easy axis of the free magnetic layer and a second vector component orthogonal to the easy axis of the free magnetic layer. The bias field reduces a write current magnitude required to switch the direction of the magnetization orientation of the free magnetic layer.

    摘要： Self-reference reading a magnetic tunnel junction data cell methods are disclosed. An illustrative method includes applying a read voltage across a magnetic tunnel junction data cell and forming a read current. The magnetic tunnel junction data cell has a first resistance state. The read voltage is sufficient to switch the magnetic tunnel junction data cell resistance. The method includes detecting the read current and determining if the read current remains constant during the applying step. If the read current remains constant during the applying step, then the first resistance state of the magnetic tunnel junction data cell is the resistance state that the read voltage was sufficient to switch the magnetic tunnel junction data cell to.

    摘要： A magnetic tunnel junction memory apparatus and self-reference read and write assist schemes are described. One method of self-reference reading a magnetic tunnel junction memory unit includes applying a first read current through a magnetic tunnel junction data cell to form a first bit line read voltage, then applying a first magnetic field through the magnetic tunnel junction data cell forming a magnetic field modified magnetic tunnel junction data cell, and then applying a second read current thorough the magnetic field modified magnetic tunnel junction data cell to form a second bit line read voltage. The first read current being less than the second read current. Then comparing the first bit line read voltage with the second bit line read voltage to determine whether the magnetic tunnel junction data cell was in a high resistance state or a low resistance state. Methods of applying a magnetic field to the MTJ and then writing the desired resistance state are also disclosed.
