    摘要: A magnetoresistive element includes: a magnetization free layer having a first plane and a second plane located on the opposite side from the first plane, and having a variable magnetization direction; a magnetization pinned layer provided on the first plane side of the magnetization free layer, and having a pinned magnetization direction; a first tunnel barrier layer provided between the magnetization free layer and the magnetization pinned layer; a second tunnel barrier layer provided on the second plane of the magnetization free layer; and a non-magnetic layer provided on a plane on the opposite side of the second tunnel barrier layer from the magnetization free layer. The magnetization direction of the magnetization free layer is variable by applying current between the magnetization pinned layer and the non-magnetic layer, and a resistance ratio between the first tunnel barrier layer and the second tunnel barrier layer is in a range of 1:0.25 to 1:4.

    摘要: An MTJ element has two magnetic layers and a nonmagnetic layer. The resistance of the MTJ element, which varies depending on whether the two magnetic layers are magnetized parallel or antiparallel. In an MRAM adapted to write data into the MTJ element by causing a write wiring to generate induced magnetic flux and consequently changing the direction of magnetization of the recording layer, the MTJ element is a perpendicular MTJ element in which each of the two magnetic layers is magnetized in a direction perpendicular to its plane. The write wiring is placed in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the thickness of the MTJ element and applies a generated magnetic field to the magnetic layers of the MTJ element in the direction in which they are magnetized. Magnetic yokes hold the MTJ element in the direction of its thickness.
