摘要:
Provided is a method of fabricating a semiconductor device. The method of fabricating a semiconductor device includes forming a plurality of magnetic memory patterns spaced apart from each other on a substrate, with each of the magnetic memory patterns including a free pattern, a tunnel barrier pattern, and a reference pattern which are stacked on the substrate, performing a magnetic thermal treatment process on the magnetic memory patterns, and forming a passivation layer on the magnetic memory patterns. The magnetic thermal treatment process and the forming of the passivation layer are simultaneously performed in one reactor.
摘要:
Provided are magnetic memory devices, electronic systems and memory cards including the same, methods of manufacturing the same, and methods of controlling a magnetization direction of a magnetic pattern. In a magnetic memory device, atomic-magnetic moments non-parallel to one surface of a free pattern increase in the free pattern. Therefore, critical current density of the magnetic memory device may be reduced, such that power consumption of the magnetic memory device is reduced or minimized and/or the magnetic memory device is improved or optimized for a higher degree of integration.

A magnetic memory device may include a first vertical magnetic layer, a non-magnetic layer on the first vertical magnetic layer, and a first junction magnetic layer on the non-magnetic layer, with the non-magnetic layer being between the first vertical magnetic layer and the first junction magnetic layer. A tunnel barrier may be on the first junction magnetic layer, with the first junction magnetic layer being between the non-magnetic layer and the tunnel barrier. A second junction magnetic layer may be on the tunnel barrier with the tunnel barrier being between the first and second junction magnetic layers, and a second vertical magnetic layer may be on the second junction magnetic layer with the second junction magnetic layer being between the tunnel barrier and the second vertical magnetic layer.

A magnetic memory device may include a first ferromagnetic layer, a second ferromagnetic layer, and a tunnel barrier layer arranged on a substrate. The tunnel barrier layer may include a crystal structure and may be arranged between the first ferromagnetic layer and the second ferromagnetic layer. At least the first ferromagnetic layer may include a first layer in contact with the tunnel barrier layer and a second layer in contact with the first layer, and an orientation of the first layer with respect to the tunnel barrier layer may be greater than an orientation of the second layer with respect to the tunnel barrier layer.
摘要:
A magnetic memory device includes a free layer and a guide layer on a substrate. An insulating layer is interposed between the free layer and the guide layer. At least one conductive bridge passes through the insulating layer and electrically connects the free layer and the guide layer. A diffusion barrier may be interposed between the guide layer and the insulating layer. The device may further include a reference layer having a fixed magnetization direction on a side of the free layer opposite the insulating layer and a tunnel barrier between the reference layer and the free layer. Related fabrication methods are also described.

A magnetic memory device includes a reference magnetic layer having a fixed magnetization direction, a tunnel barrier layer on the reference magnetic layer, a free layer having a variable magnetization direction on the tunnel barrier layer opposite the reference magnetic layer, and a magnetization reversal auxiliary layer on the free layer. The magnetization reversal auxiliary layer has a fixed magnetization direction that is substantially perpendicular to a plane along an interface between the tunnel barrier layer and the reference layer. The magnetization reversal auxiliary layer may be directly on the free layer, or an exchange coupling control layer may be provided between the magnetization reversal auxiliary layer and the free layer.
