    Abstract: A method and system for providing a magnetic junction usable in a magnetic device are described. The magnetic junction includes a pinned layer, a nonmagnetic spacer layer, and a free layer. The nonmagnetic spacer layer is between the pinned layer and the free layer. The magnetic junction is configured such that the free layer is switchable between a plurality of stable magnetic states when a write current is passed through the magnetic junction. At least one of the pinned layer and the free layer includes a magnetic substructure. The magnetic substructure includes at least two magnetic layers interleaved with at least one insertion layer. Each of the at least one insertion layer includes at least one of Bi, W, I, Zn, Nb, Ag, Cd, Hf, Os, Mo, Ca, Hg, Sc, Y, Sr, Mg, Ti, Ba, K, Na, Rb, Pb, and Zr. The at least two magnetic layers are magnetically coupled.

    Abstract: A method for providing a magnetic junction usable in a magnetic device and the magnetic junction are described. The method includes providing a reference layer, a nonmagnetic spacer layer and a free layer. The nonmagnetic spacer layer is between the free and reference layers. An interface is between the nonmagnetic spacer and free layers. Providing the free layer further includes applying at least one electric field while the free layer is at a local temperature above an operating temperature of the magnetic junction. The electric field(s) exert a force on an anion in the free layer in a direction away from the interface between the free layer and the nonmagnetic spacer layer. The magnetic junction is configured such that the free layer is switchable between stable magnetic states when a write current is passed through the magnetic junction.

    Abstract: A magnetic junction usable in magnetic devices is described. The magnetic junction includes at least one reference layer, at least one nonmagnetic spacer layer and a free layer. The nonmagnetic spacer layer(s) are between the reference layer(s) and the free layer. The free layer has a magnetic thermal stability coefficient having a plurality of magnetic thermal stability coefficient phases. A first phase magnetic thermal stability coefficient has a first slope below a first temperature. A second phase magnetic thermal stability coefficient has a second slope above the first temperature and below a second temperature greater than the first temperature. The first and second slopes are unequal at the first temperature. The magnetic thermal stability coefficient is zero only above the second temperature. The free layer is switchable between stable magnetic states when a write current passed through the magnetic junction.

    Abstract: A system including a racetrack memory layer is described. The racetrack memory layer includes a plurality of bit locations and a plurality of domain wall traps. The bit locations are interleaved with the domain wall traps. Each of the bit locations has a first domain wall speed. Each of the domain wall traps has a second domain wall speed. The first domain wall speed is greater than the second domain wall speed. The first domain wall speed and the second domain wall speed are due to at least one of a Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction variation in the racetrack memory layer, a synthetic antiferromagnetic effect variation in the racetrack memory layer, and a separation distance for the plurality of domain wall traps corresponding to an intrinsic travel distance. The separation distance is less than one hundred nanometers.

The magnetic junction includes a free layer, a pinned layer and nonmagnetic spacer layer between the free and pinned layers. At least one of the free and pinned layers includes at least one engineered Heusler structure having a first magnetic layer, a second magnetic layer and an amorphous layer between the magnetic layers. At least one of the first and second magnetic layer(s) is a Heusler layer. The first magnetic layer's perpendicular magnetic anisotropy energy (PMAE) exceeds is out-of-plane demagnetization energy. The second magnetic layer's PMAE exceeds its out-of-plane demagnetization energy. The free layer and/or the pinned layer has a PMAE greater than an out-of-plane demagnetization energy. The free layer is switchable between stable magnetic states when a write current is passed through the magnetic junction.
