    摘要: A magnetoresistive memory element is provided with a read module having a first pinned layer with a magnetoresistance that is readable by a read current received from an external circuit. A write module has a nanocontact that receives a write current from the external circuit and, in turn, imparts a spin torque to a free layer that functions as a shared storage layer for both the read module and the write module.

    摘要: A magnetoresistive memory element has a read module with a first pinned layer that has a magnetoresistance that is readable by a read current received from an external circuit. The element has a write module that receives a write current from the external circuit. A coupling module adjacent both the write module and the read module has a free layer that functions as a shared storage layer for both the read module and the write module. The shared storage layer receives spin torque from both the read module and the write module and has a magnetization that is rotatable by the write current.

    摘要: One example includes a magnetic Josephson junction (MJJ) system. The system includes a first superconducting material layer and a second superconducting material layer each configured respectively as a galvanic contacts. The system also includes a ferrimagnetic material layer arranged between the first and second superconducting material layers and that is configured to exhibit a fixed net magnetic moment at a predetermined operating temperature of the MJJ system. The system also includes a ferromagnetic material layer arranged between the first and second superconducting material layers and that is configured to exhibit a variable magnetic orientation in response to an applied magnetic field. The MJJ system can be configured to store a binary logical value based on a direction of the variable magnetic orientation of the ferromagnetic material layer. The system further includes a spacer layer arranged between the ferromagnetic and the ferrimagnetic material layers.

    摘要: A memory device includes a memory stack formed on a substrate to program skyrmions within at least one layer of the stack. The skyrmions represent logic states of the memory device. The memory stack further includes a top and bottom electrode to receive electrical current from an external source and to provide the electrical current to the memory stack. A free layer stores a logic state of the skyrmions in response to the electrical current. A Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) Interaction (DMI) layer in contact with the free layer induces skyrmions in the free layer. A tunnel barrier is interactive with the DMI layer to facilitate detection of the logic state of the skyrmions in response to a read current. At least one fixed magnetic (FM) layer is positioned within the memory stack to facilitate programming of the skyrmions within the free layer in response to the electrical current.

    摘要: A buffer layer can be used to smooth the surface roughness of a galvanic contact layer (e.g., of niobium) in an electronic device, the buffer layer being made of a stack of at least four (e.g., six) layers of a face-centered cubic (FCC) crystal structure material, such as copper, the at least four FCC material layers alternating with at least three layers of a body-centered cubic (BCC) crystal structure material, such as niobium, wherein each of the FCC material layers and BCC material layers is between about five and about ten angstroms thick. The buffer layer can provide the smoothing while still maintaining desirable transport properties of a device in which the buffer layer is used, such as a magnetic Josephson junction, and magnetics of an overlying magnetic layer in the device, thereby permitting for improved magnetic Josephson junctions (MJJs) and thus improved superconducting memory arrays and other devices.
