    摘要: A mechanism is provided for bidirectional writing. A structure includes a reference layer on top of a tunnel barrier, a free layer underneath the tunnel barrier, a metal spacer underneath the free layer, an insulating magnet underneath the metal spacer, and a high resistance layer underneath the insulating layer. The high resistance layer acts as a heater in which the heater heats the insulating magnet to generate spin polarized electrons. A magnetization of the free layer is destabilized by the spin polarized electrons generated from the insulating magnet. A voltage is applied to change the magnetization of the free layer when the magnetization is destabilized. A polarity of the voltage determines when the magnetization of the free layer is parallel and antiparallel to a magnetization of the reference layer.

    摘要: A method is provided for writing data to an MRAM device having a plurality of magnetic memory cells configured in an array between a plurality of word lines and bit lines. At least one of the magnetic memory cells includes at least one fixed magnetic layer and a plurality of free magnetic layers, separated from the fixed magnetic layer by at least one barrier layer. The free magnetic layers include a first free magnetic layer adjacent to the barrier layer, a second free magnetic layer separated from the first free magnetic layer by at least one first parallel coupling layer, and a third free magnetic layer separated from the second free magnetic layer by at least one second parallel coupling layer. A magnetic moment of the second free magnetic layer is greater than both a magnetic moment of the first free magnetic layer and the third free magnetic layer.
